Hi Mr. Fryke,
There was a rumor back when dot mac went from free to fee based, (I think it was posted to Usenet) that dot mac was being contracted out to a firm that ran it on windows boxes. Is there any truth to that rumor? Most firms are proud of what they do, and proud of their choice of equipment. Over time, several web host organizations personally gave me tours of their facilities, showed me the servers which they are truely proud of. If Dot Mac runs on G5 servers, why doesn't Apple convey pride in this? It would certainly set the right example for customers to follow.
The conspicious absence of hardware/location of Dot Mac begs the question.
I'm not asking for any "close hold" information. I'm not asking for anything that would allow me to go anywhere near those servers. As a Macintosh user, I want to share the pride and joy of knowing that they run Dot Mac on a G-5(s) if that' is, in fact, true. OK, I'll try to improve the questions.
What kind of server hardware and/or operating system does Dot Mac (mac.com) run on? (Is it Mac or is it other than Mac?)
Geographically speaking, where is Dot Mac physically located (what state/province and what country - or just, what country)?
If Dot Mac is contracted to a firm other than Apple Computer, what is the name of the firm?
Do you know the answers?
If I'm asking something inappropriate, please enlighten me why this is inappropriate?
If I'm asking too much, what, specifically, am I asking "too much" of, and why?
Thank you, Mr. Fryke, for allowing me to post this.
