new server coming soon

 So we have random lockups with current server.  Replaced cpu, reinstalled os, ran extensive diagnostics, decided to order new server. 

I thought about asking the community for help, but the webcomic advertisers came through with enough that I'm able to purchase a new server, so I'm ordering parts this weekend.

We'll have a bit of downtime, probably not this weekend, but rather next.  Then, if we go a month without issues, I can move to the next stage I wanted to do almost a year ago, which is some more extensive vote records, more interesting calculations, more everything.

Also, I might start outsourcing some programming to get more done faster, so if you're an asp.net developer or know someone who is, and would like to do some small jobs here and there, send me a resume via the contact link and I'll talk to you.
