19 year old Mac server survives Digg traffic
The very popular social news network, Digg tends to give large amounts of traffic to articles that hit the front page, but when Pingdom’s post about old Mac’s that host sites on web, hit the front page one of the old servers didn’t go down. Paul’s 19 year old Mac IIci survived the onslaught of Digg traffic when the post about it and other old Mac servers hit the front page. Even with a Cache card and 1 GB SCSI Hard Drive update, the uptime of this Mac is quite impressive. Up to this day, the site is up and welcome for anyone to visit at www.littledork.err0neous.org

Here are the stats of Paul’s NetBSD powered Mac:
Introduced: September 20, 1989
CPU: Motorola 68030, 25 MHz
Ram: Upgraded to 128 MB
OS: NetBSD
Web server: Apache
Upgrades: Cache card and 1 GB SCSI hard drive
