Launch of the DC hub.

as you might know, the old DC hub has been shut down by the TCC.

While the cause of this may be unclear, one thing is clear - it is not coming back up.

as a response we are creating a new hub:

TechnionHub.gotdns.org

Right now this is run from a PC with limited power, so performence might be not be really good right now.


Later on it is possible that we would like to start passing the hat around, and collecting donations for some upgrades but for now we are doing our best to get free parts from friends and family.

If you have one or more of these things to donate it would be great:

-
a PC that is stronger than a Pentium 3 733 mhz
-RAM for pentium 3 series. (RAM freq. 133 mhz.)
-Ethernet HUB/Router/Switch
-KVM switch
-Power supply unit for PC
-PCI Ethernet card

Alot of these things are just things most of you have lying around so do something good with it - donate it!

To donate stuff contact us at technion.hub@gmail.com

Some important notes about the hub:
-Sharing copyrighted material is prohibited.
-Tell everyone about the hub.
-This hub has nothing to do with old hub, and is not run by the same people.

Happy Harish,
-Moonbase.Commander
