Downloading and setting a Win10 usb to take home.
If I get time I might try and re-setup the old Media box into a gaming machine to play simple games like SimCity 5/Emergency2017/Command and Conquer etc.
Then set-up something like Remotr to "stream" to my tablet to play on.

Good! There definitely should be.

I win. Just had a talk with one of my bosses that ended with a conversation about the benefits of virtualizing our production servers.
A small step forward, but a necessary step. -

A small step forward, but a necessary step.Is your FreePBX server currently virtualized?

Boss just ordered 4 SAS drives from xbyte... but only after we got 8x bad drives (2 separate orders) from Amazon. Glad this project has time enough to wait for some working drives.

Yes, what will be deployed will be a Vultr instance. Our current PBX, the Altigen thing, is a box sitting in our basement. By production servers, I should've clarified to say the servers that host our web application and database.

Sweet. Any idea what you're going to be pushing for? XS? KVM? ESXi/vSphere? Hyper-V?

@mattspeller 2 different sellers, all 8 drives showed "foreign config", which means that they were all used. Bastards. 5/8 of them instantly started blinking the orange light on the tray... DOA.

I'd be livid, that's not right man. Hope you left a scathing review!

It was bought through the CTO's account... but I'll get him to at least let me leave them reviews.

Most likely Hyper-V. Our server in our office (AD, file server, Sage) is Hyper-V. One of the production boxes actually has Hyper-V as a role to run a postfix VM.
As I do research, unless I find a compelling reason to not use Hyper-V, it seems like that would make the most sense for the environment. -

They've already called it a huge disaster.
