...used to take weeks. Sometimes over a month. There was so much stuff to arrange and configure, it was insane. When a company said "let's get a new website," all the IT guys would just groan. And I just did it in 20 minutes. From the first whois to see if it was taken, to the first live load of the new site's default index page: twenty freakin' minutes. And at my age, this is where I should start saying "you youngsters don't understand how good you have it," but I'm too busy feeling pretty damn fine about how good I have it.
