We run our own Joomla site: 1. Estimated time to get it set up and running initially. 3-4 Days - being the first time I created a Joomla Site and was early in the life of Joomla1.5
2. Estimated time spent per week maintaining. Less than 30 minutes. A little more right before school starts updating teacher names, etc. Articles, etc, are written by the principals and secretaries. It takes a while to get to that point but well worth it. 3. Short description of the hardware you run it on. DL140 : Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 2.40GHz, 2 cores - 1GB RAM - 80 GB HD 4. Estimate of $ spent on software or add-ons. $0.00 5. Link to your site for comparison of look and feel. a-ccentral.com --Michael T.

We are considering either setting up a box with Joomla internally or contracting a company to create and host it. I would appreciate any input you all can provide to assist us in our decision.
