so that whole windows-tab thing instead of alt-tab is over-rated ?
surely that's worth some serious money......

uptime

http://en.uptime-project.net

has decided to pull the plug

how much does a server cost to run, in a year, for 20,000 users updating a few bits i'd say every hour ?
would 20,000 users at $1 a year each cover costs ?
