I think we're going to name the new server gonzo (fitting in with kermit and that whole theme), although bender is still high on the charts. </STRONG>

Go with Beaker, nothing seems to get blown up and crash with such regularity.

The Cube was never owned by MacNN, it was owned by the crooked hosting company that is no more.

[edit:Bodhi answered my question while I posted]

IRC is always a bad idea for a board with any significant size. It gets political. Chat is too transient, message boards + IM for individuals is perfect.

And using Mozilla, it would be just perfect. Mozilla has a great IRC client.
