I'll be getting it back tomorrow.

Only thing I can think of right now is a blown PSU. If that happened, I hope it did not take anything with it.

OK, we're going to try this again.

Apparently the kind folks at DHL really like football, and apparantly they ran out of footballs, and decided to use my server as a substitue.

The case of the machine was actually BENT! How they do that when it's double boxed and full of styrofoam is beyond me. These guys have talent.

Fortuantely, after I reseated all the hardware, my creation started breathing again. So it's on its way to Dallas AGAIN (this time via the Butchers of UPS).

We might actually have a party in Dallas this weekend after all.

P.S. Before anyone suggests fedex, UPS, Bob's discout trucking, etc. I've had them all cause me damage and heartache in the past. I stick with one until the inevitably damage one of my machines, and then I hop to the next one.

Simply amazing.

However, I worked at a supermarket, so I can tell all sorts of things that goes on with your food. ;)

I 've sent and even with little envelopes the thing will arrive but .. Looks like they dont care so much about the handle with care part of their job..
