This is what it takes to host webhostingtalk :

Our advanced hosting solution at RackSpace consists of a firewall in front of a Cisco load balancer unit. We have 5 web servers which are Dell PowerEdge 2650 boxes with 2 GIG of ram, dual 2.0 GHz Intel Xeon processors and 3 15000 RPM SCSI drives running Raid 5. Each site hosted connects to one of 3 seperate database servers over a backup network. Each database server is a Dell PowerEdge 2650 server with 4 GB ram, dual 2.0 GHz Intel Xeon processors with 3 15000 RPM SCSI drives running in a raid 5 configuration.

I think Enom need to get the same

Nice ! I couldnt even log in today to bid.

I place my bids as soon as a new droplist is released (EX:7-28-2004.txt for today) - this way I make sure I have my bids placed.
When I am in a private auction, I just login sooner
As for eNom servers back-end, they do need a new solution.

My first attempt to place a bid, but I was unable to do so...

I'm highly disappointed....

Hopefully they will extend the auctions.

AIRBORNEEXPRESS.COM - Perfect name to be sued for having..

HLK - Too many people are afraid of trademark issues.

[HLK]

Be afraid when it is a name like that. They won't have it long IMO.
You think it is smart to pay 5k for that name?

 

[Adam DickerAdam Dicker is verified member.]

I have paid more for worse and made it back and lots more...

But overall you are correct.. never worth the hassle.

I had the snap for AIRBORNEEXPRESS.COM but of course snapnames is worthless.

I learned my lesson the hard way once... I would never wish that on my worse enemy...

I think enom problems will soon be solved. I mailed them a suggestion to break the auctioned domains into 10 or 20 per page so that it will be easy to select a domain and bid. ANd i got a reply from them that they are working on it.

Enom rocks, they answer all the queries sent to them by the customers.

Welcome back Chris! How was your holiday?
Many people here thought that club drop was falling apart without you.

Heh. Well, I don't work on the front-end, but I do know that those who do were working very hard to resolve the issues. It's truly a case of a rapid increase in popularity now that we're catching upwards of half of the high-value names on a day-by-day basis. But I believe they've found and eliminated the problems and identified some improvements that are in the pipeline.

My vacation was... well, it didn't suck. We went camping for 4 days along the Oregon coast. Now I'm not a huge camping kind of guy. My idea of a vacation is a cruise, or a sandy beach in the Caribbean, or a few days of SCUBA in Belize or Cancun. But my wife wanted to go camping, and I indulged her. But it wasn't that bad, and I did dig being able to sit around the campfire and relax.
