Better prices on dedicated servers:
Intel 2.4GHz/60GB/512MB/2TB $49.99/mo.
Intel 3.06GHz/80GB/1GB/2TB $59.99/mo.
Dedicated servers, VPS, and hosting from $2.50/mo.
ROFL
I never thought someone seriously would go the whole way from dev, test and
prod servers AND use all the version control stuff.
Honestly: I use dev servers and two backup servers for our company website,
but having a version control system and everything would, in my opinion,
really make this whole being a developer some kind of ... ugh. Might be good
to do, I don't know. Never tried, and probably never will. And being a "good
IT professional" to me means: know what you're doing, and take the hits you
get. Lost your data? Well, there is a hit to take. But pointing fingers has
never helped anybody.
