“Long way to go, and a short time to get there … ”

The move is over. [1]

tower is no longer doing much of anything, other than sitting there, consuming the power of DialTone [2] and sending out a status message (consisting of uptime and /proc/interrupts (since the timer interrupt is nearing the 4 billion mark)) once an hour until such time as the power is cut off.

As of right now:

>
```
[root]tower:/root>uptime
10:43pm up 443 days, 22:57, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
[root]tower:/root>
```

Our new server, swift (so named because we had to swiftly set the thing up) is quite nice—modern hardware instead of a hand-me-down 486, hosted at FastColo.net [3], a local company in Boca Raton [4] (and run by a good friend of mine).

I'll have more details about the move later. Right now it's Miller Time! [5]™
