Power out at Stardock (Lights aren`t on, everyone`s gone home)

Wednesday, November 24, 2004 by GreenReaper | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

There appears to have been a power cut at Stardock HQ. IRC and support services may be down, however Stardock Central should still be accessible. Hopefully this will be a short state of affairs (the cut, not the accessibility ).

run out of nuts? no way, jafo. you know as well as anyone that pretty much the entire staff is nutty as skippy peanut butter. i hope the outage isn't weather related, though.

My understanding is that everyone was playing HL2 and the combined draw from the graphics cards blew a fuse, but I may not have it exactly right.

I guess it's a good thing Brad had a Drengin slave-pit and treadmill setup in his basement (next to the abandoned salt mines). He never has to worry about running out of power at home!

Apparently Cari has Ty ( https://www.stardock.com/products/lwninja/ ), but it's not the same - those short legs just don't get up enough speed to power an Athlon64, let alone those fancy new graphics cards . . .
