Without you here to guide me, I'd have continued believing that running my own server was inherently more rewarding overall than shelling out for a "hosted solution," where I could be waiting as long as it takes for someone to get around to running an upgrade for me... and hoping they did it right. Not only that, I'd have blissfully continued believing that all software is perfect right out of the gate! And who knew that hackers troll blog entries looking for unpatched systems? Here I thought they had automated tools for that sort of thing. Silly me, eh? *cough* Why, thank you, Fini.
