Alright, lets see. Here is what I want to do. Everybody, list your dream server configuration. Not like internally, like, who would you have your server housed with and what server what it be.

Mines would have to be a co-located 2U Dell PowerEdge Server housed in the Baltimore, MD location of the Level 3 Communications Data Center.

I would most likely use it for my own online radio station with atleast 1000MBps transfer for all the listening slots.

I would some day hope to have that happen, in the future. For now it will just be the old shared hosting for me.

Whats yours?

My servers are housed in pretty much my dream location now, sitting in Equinix Chicago. I love the location and I love my provider. I've been lots of places in my years on the Internet, and I've pretty much got the the ideal place to be. Connectivity is awesome, the building is solid, and it even gets points for looking cool. :)

It could be made better by having a cage there all to myself and a couples techs to manage it. But at this point in the game, it's all good. :)

Really, cool. I always thought of using Equinix, not so sure though. Do they have a online tour of their data centers and do they have any DC's in either: West Virginia, Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania or DC? If so, let me know by directing me to their site, plz.
