Yes but it will be same OS, so it should be simple copy and a bit of tweaking with packages and then changing IP in DNS..

So nothing horrible..

I still got my eyes on that 8GB RAM quad core with 2x 1TB disks.

It will be expensive first year, but for second year it can be cheaper- $170 is setup fee.

And with a bit creativity with my taxes, I could get rid of it's value added tax and slash price for second year to $850 or 580Ôé¼

Which is imo fine for such powerful machine.

If Spring community finances third to half of that im fine sponsoring the rest!

Its a bug that only happens on some 64bit linux kernels as I understand, virtual box just wastes nearly half of one core.

Is this fix in any way related to the Spring site now taking 10 minutes to load any page?

Are you, in fact, a representative from a superintelligent alien race?

Mono is a cross platform .NET implementation, can't you use that?

also, why does the server need a mission editor? this is a client tool?
