    I remember being quite delighted when a .com domain re-pointing became apparent after an hour or so. Then again, I remember being awestruck by the speed of a 10MB Winchester drive compared to the 5-1/4" floppies in the same case. A week later, I was muttering darkly about how slow it seemed
    Aye, the propagation for .com domains is pretty rapid these days, and this seemed to be reflected after just a few minutes last night. Unfortunately the Fasthosts system of physically moving the hosting package onto a different server seems to take a lot longer
    Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?

                      I watched that too... it actually kept me reasonably awake.

                      Unlike the Diverse Reports thing about Afghanistan... which I had to stop watching to preserve my blood pressure.
