MSP Back (mostly)
Posted by macman 2006-10-17 11:20:17-0700
MSP is back for the most part. There may be periods of brief down time as the new server is tweaked a bit for other processes running on it. There will likely be another downtime of a few days when the server is eventually relocated back to the west coast.
MacServPro "outtage"

As you've probably already noticed our main channel bot MacServPro (MSP) has been gone for the past several weeks because the server it runs on suffered a hardware failure. The good news is the drives and data are fine and replacement parts have arrived to build a new server. However our resident evil genius and botmaster Ambs has been incredibly busy and hasn't had time to work on it much. Hopefully things will be back to normal in a week or so so please be patient!
Finally a new website
Posted by macman 2005-11-06 17:36:45-0800
As you've probably noticed the DalMac website has finally been updated. A special thanks goes out to abeyance for taking on the daunting task of updating the code from the old site to what you see now. Hopefully thanks to the new content management system he designed into the the site will make keeping it updated will become a lot easier. Maybe now we can update it more than every five years. Maybe. A few sections are still being tweaked so you may see some changes over the next week or two. If you have any comments or suggestions for any of the sections let us know and maybe we can incorporate them into the site.

DalNet's #macintosh was founded in May 1996 by a group of Mac users to offer assistance to other Mac users in a time where Apple and Macintosh friendly places online where few and far between. With the vast amount of information available online that wasn't back in the early days of #macintosh we don't do as much tech support as we used to, but new users and long time users alike are welcome to stop by ask a question or just hang out and have fun. #macintosh is located on the DALnet IRC network.
