It does have SOMETHING to do with DiY...

As some of you know, I'm a bit of a geek. And I love geeky computer things. This week at work has been particularly geeky, and I'm especially proud of this geekiness because I *Did It Myself*...

I got a server rack at work... I desperately needed one. I've been setting up my servers anywhere I had space - on tables, on shelves... any horizontal space would do. I've asked for a server rack many times but there was never any budget for it. Then magically, three weeks ago, the Server Rack Fairy appeared with 30 or so really old racks from an EDS data center that had just been torn down. Sure, they were old and ugly, but I jumped at the offer when one of them was offered to me.

I picked my rack from the bunch, stripped it down (it was messy - very hastily unracked), cleaned it up, racked up the new servers, cabled the rack with power, ethernet, scsi and KVM... and here is the result of my labor:



I still have to tie the cables down to the side of the rack, so they look neat, and then close the rack and move it up against the wall, but for the most part its done...

And I did it myself :) First time ever, I might add.

I'm geeked as shit... hahaha...
