Hardware failure, downtime, upgrade

Last weekend, our server had some severe hardware problems. It seems that the mainboard went bonkers and froze the machine a couple times. When I finally got the technicians to replace the malfunctioning parts, they found that the hard drive had also suffered from the repeated crashes. So we needed a new hard drive anyway, and decided to upgrade to the largest possible drive for this server model. We have twice the storage now, that is 40GB (still too little).

The server has been installed from scratch. In the process, I have changed the domain name from www.browsershots.org to browsershots.org and the language code for Swedish from se to sv. All old links should keep working. If you find problems or broken links, just send email.
