I rarely get involved in these thank-fest sorts of things, but I think its time to stand up and be counted.

When I signed up to Linode (Aug 2003) from my perspective it was all a bit of a leap into the unknown, never having heard of UML prior, and only going anywhere near a Linode ‘cos I was short on both time and money. I sort of thought that it would probably do for a couple of months whilst I find somewhere to colo my little Sun machine.

Never once have I had cause to regret chosing Linode.com, and the service and service generosity has been well in excess of what we’ve become used to thinking a few meagre dollars should buy.

Thank you Caker, I’m ever so pleased its all gone well for you, and long may you continue.

(My little Sun server continues to sit in a box rotting in the garage.)

To take advantage of the new RAM, please reboot your Linode.

Obviously I’ve got to start reading the announcement forum more often, since I just saw this.

Thanks.[/quote]

Lol ditto. Damn Linux and it’s stability. If it’d only crashed I’d have been getting free stuff even sooner

ptomblin, you’re not alone…

*set’s up calendar reminder to check linode forums at least once a week*

Thanks again folks, as allways, the service continues to impress.

Dude, Linode, thank you!!! The generosity of this company continues to amaze me. It was only like 2 months ago that I got extra bandwidth for free too. Thanks a bunch!

[quote:29fcd2df2f="zibeli"]Excellent, thanks!

Out of curiosity, how did you add memory without rebooting the host? Or are there just fewer linodes on the host now?[/quote]

Each host has tons of ram to spare (so ppl can add ram to their accounts if they need too). My host has like 4GB spare ram last I looked.

Excellent! I’m glad to see this happen!

Of course, this isn’t the first time that a free upgrade has come around… I was around when the disk space was upped, too.

As much as I hate rebooting, this is one time where a reboot is worthwhile.
