 I'll be telecommuting (which will be a new experience) and wondered
 if people had any advice on a decent ISP?

 At home, my ISP is demon (home office package) and I am quite happy with them.
 My partner telecommutes a couple days a week and we have no problems
 with the connection.
 Luckily we are near the phone exchange, so we get an ADSL2+ with 20
 MiB down / 1 MiB up for ~£24.99 a month.

 I know of at least one person at the Glasgow Perl Mongers which sings
 the praises of Andrews and Arnold (http://www.aaisp.net.uk/), and have
 been thinking of switching myself. Their service is reportedly great.
 http://www.aaisp.net.uk/broadband-prices.html
 Their plan for 3GiB/month daytime + 50 GiB/month evenings/weekend
 comes at £24.44 which is pretty much the same as demon.

 I have not switched yet as I have not been able to determine how much
 data is transferred when my partner works from home (our router is not
 collaborating).

 By the way, if anybody is interested to join the Glasgow Perl Mongers:
 we will have our next technical meeting on Thursda 2011-01-13, see
 http://glasgow.pm.org/

 Hope this helps :)

Thanks for all your efforts :)

 Hello all,

 It is with great regret and sadness that I have to make tonights
 meeting about ScotLUG and make tonight a maintainer election.  As I
 stated when I took the position initially I would do this job until
 you found someone better or I screwed it up.  Sadly due to personal
 issues I have not had the time this month to arrange a speaker and so
 it is time for me to move on as maintainer and leave the position open
 to someone who does have the time and resources to do the job.

 So, if you have ever thought I could to better than the beardie one
 or just have some ideas on how ScotLUG could be made even more fun
 then please come along tonight at the usual time of 1930 at Livi
 Tower.  I know there are quite a few people with both the energy and
 the time to do a great job with this, now it is time for you to stand
 up and show us all how it is done! :D

 For everyone else, there will of course be the usual chat and general
 Linux QA at the meeting and the ever popular trip to the local public
 house after the meeting.

 More details about the venue and time of meetings on the wiki
 http://www.scotlug.org.uk/

 (PS. I might be a little late as moncky is dragging me kicking and
 screaming to a Tron preview)

 Let me say now it has been a great joy to do this for the last year
 and I wish who ever is next all the best and my support.

 Take care,

 Hi Neil,



 Thanks for the help. I've now added my name to those willing to help out on 
 install day. Curiously though, my name shows up in red on the page. Hmm :-{ 
 Maybe this colouring is used to highlight new additions.



 Anyway, here's hoping the install day really does happen. Hope to see you all 
 there.



 Regards,



 Stuart

 Hi Stuart, I think there is an extra hoop to jump through before you can
 edit the wiki due to massive amounts of spam.

 I've put you in the relevant group, let me know if you still can't get
 access.

 Neil.

 The job involves minor amounts of spam purging, and the occasional
 passing of a post from members who have posted from the wrong address.

 Cheers

[Scottish] Plug In Power Meter

2009-02-02 Thread Thomas Greer
Hi all

I was wondering if anyone had one of those plug in power meters lying about?

I'm looking to find out how much VA a server in my house uses, before
I fire it into a datacentre..

I can buy one for £15, but i feel thats a waste of money when I'll use it once.

TIA

Thomas
