This is correct. Actually, I was over there today, and aside from some
organizational issues, the TriLUG rack will remain at Inflow until it's
no longer in either parties best interest.

After speaking with the on-site staff, they seem to accept the necessity
of Inflow's moves, and would rather have Inflow takes steps to become
profitable, than to collapse because they didn't do this in time (like
some other hosting companies in the area...). Since Durham/RTP is
profitable already, it's more likely that the sites that are loosing
money will take the brunt of the cuts - and that's what's happening now.

This is also true. We have four systems (two more were installed
today!), and only take up about half a rack right now. I doubt we'll
need more than that for a while...
