Wow, it has been half a year since this site was up.
It used to be that I hosted this site ( and all of the other crazy sites I have ) out of a spare bedroom. That server room was host to anywhere between 4 and 12 computers at any given time. I generated a lot of noise, and a lot of heat.
When we decided to move, I shut everything down and put the servers in storage so that the room could be made more presentable. Wow, our energy bills dropped by more than $80 per month at that point. And the room became much more inhabitable.
Now that we've moved into our new home, I'm reticent to put it all back in place, so instead of that, I'm experimenting with Xen. Xen is an open source virtualization project similar to vmware of parallels, but only for linux. At this point I've got a virtual machine, which you are using right now that is running in boulder.

If for the sake of discussion we amssue that 5% of sysadmins who are making purchasing decisions regarding virtual servers really want to have SE Linux support For the sake of what sort of discussion? :-) Because as an employee of a hosting company I am sure it is much, much lower. I've only supported customers with at least a dedicated server, but in that time I only ever encountered SELinux once a semiknowledgable customer had decided SELinux sounded good and turned it on, then made their system unbootable by creating a new file in /tmp and then moving it to /etc/fstab. And I've heard quite a few questions that our sales dept. couldn't answer themselves and none of them involved SELinux.(And there is a reasonable chance that if anyone else had run into an SELinux problem they might have asked me, as I am one of only two employees who aced their RHCE. ;) )
