Yep, a wimp I be! Malaysia? Have you even seen that server in person?
Yes, I installed it. I bought the smallest form-factor PC that Intrex sold, installed Debian stable, put it in a suitcase, and then hopped on a plane. After the installation, I spent some R&R time on a tiny island in the Straits of Malacca, some of the nicest beaches that you can imagine. Ah, the life of an international Linux consultant! The PC is set up at a furniture factory, and it basically allows them to share their dial-up internet connection among all of the office employees. Why travel 13,000 miles for a simple internet gateway installation? The factory is owned by my brother-in-law, and this was a trip to visit family. For those that don't know me (fendy), I lived in Singapore in 2001 and 2002.
