Great news for our hosting clients - our web server upgrades have been completed and everything is up and running.  The upgrades went through last night as planned and everything was running smoothly early this morning.

A big thanks to Brenden (our technical support in Brisbane) for working overnight on the change, and also to all our clients for their patience in the past couple of weeks.  We can now look forward to some plain sailing in the future.

The new server has increased capacity and speed - which is particularly useful for our CMS clients who will find back end and administrator functions much faster.

The new server is a dual processor, 3Ghz machine with increased hard disk space and memory.  For the technically minded, the new server details are:
