> Lighttpd is used by a number of high-traffic websites, among them Meebo and YouTube. Wikimedia runs Lighttpd servers as does SourceForge. Three of the most famous torrent listing websites, The Pirate Bay, Mininova and isoHunt, which have more than 1,000 hits per second, also use Lighttpd.
@HackToHell ok that's convincing enough, which would you recommend most out of those you listed? I'm leaning lighttp or ngnix but I'm obviously inexperienced
@HackToHell I think I'll go with lighttp even though I'm on a vps because it is said to be much easier and I'm very much a beginner at all this. Also, seeing as it is more popular, it should have much more tutorials online
The angst hits when deciding on the MB and Video .. I don't game, I don't do much other than use a lightweight IDE and surf mostly text. @JourneymanGeek I'm pretty much limited to these guys
I just want core i5 or better with 4GB, 3 displays and room enough for a few 500GB SATA drives
@Paul @Sathya @JourneymanGeek Thanks :) I do love it. And to my delight, I can run Deus Ex: Human Revolution (that game) full blast, with no AA, and it's smooth at 40-60 FPS reported by FRAPS :)
@Sathya Experience pertaining to what? It's basically the same machine as I wrote about in the blog already, with 3 brand spankin new 3D, tiny bezel, 1080p displays. :)
I was hoping to put this off until we go to SG or HK at the end of the year, but this netbook is making the typical 'I'm going to totally die on you very soon' noises
Basically just got the deskspace, plugged them in, set up eyefinity and my standard 3 desktop presets, and then configured bezel correction for eyefinity mode.
@JourneymanGeek Ya. So the bezels are more like windowpanes instead of what you typically get, with the mouse cursor jumping from the edge of one screen to the edge of the next, basically.
Thanks @JourneymanGeek That board may just do the trick. Was a little overwhelmed. Yeah, I can use one VGA, one DVI no problem, my monitors have one of each
Though 4:3 is only tolerable in multi-monitor setups, IMO.
@Paul Correct, though Eyefinity means all three displays are treated as one very large display, where extended desktops have them treated as 3 separate monitors.
This way, when I game, I use Eyefinity to get a 5760x1080 resolution. Using extended desktops, the game cannot use two of the monitors at all due to how graphics cards are architected, and how Windows communicates with the drivers.
This was actually prompted while I was editing an answer that was link only, but there have been times that I myself have found a useful site with detailed instructions. Most times, when I'm referencing another site, I summarize or copy the details (when they're small) and fully credit the site....
Ah, sorry @Paul! Yes, most modern games (since eyefinity came out a couple years ago) support this. Games don't often have hard-coded resolution options anymore, like they used to.
@HackToHell But it is common internet of 5Mbps/1Mbps - not GoogleFiber, but at least it costs only $3.57 per month on 7 year term and after it is free. But I am sure internet will develop to such heights that 5/1 will be like surfing on 56.6Kbps modem...
@JourneymanGeek iTunes does general device management (iPhone etc.), and the IDE supports deployment, testing, debugging etc. using these devices. Therefore I need to close iTunes to update the development support components for iDevices.
Cool huh?
Which is great when I'm just listening to a podcast, and want to write an OS X application.
