Can you believe it? Is that the same community support forum you grew 
accustomed to?

After telling community members their faulty cordless USB mouses were at fault 
for the lousy response times of clicking through the community support forum, 
Pair Networks graciously strengthened their partnership to the project by 
sponsoring a second dedicated server to power the osCommerce support site.

With the project now running for 4 1/2 years and with the community growing 
continually strong month after month, the resources of the first dedicated 
server were maxed out leaving no other option but to expand to a second 
dedicated server.

The new dedicated server has been assigned the job of powering the community 
support forums only, and has been doing its job perfectly for a week now with 
no sign of performance issues arising.

This move greatly benefits the whole support site in general with each section 
of the support site now being able to run optimally under the same conditions 
that had brought it down when running only on the one dedicated server.

We'd like to thank Pair Networks again for their sponsorship to the project, 
and to the community who definitely deserve the performance the new server 
brings!
