Has the cellar ever been /.? This would probably kill your server, eh?

Tony, why exactly is it so expensive?

I realize what some of the costs are, but assume you have a T1 in place anyhow for business. As for bandwidth the cellar isn't all that graphical really and although it seems like there are loads of people here it's really small potatoes in terms of data flowing.

And if vBulletin wasn't free, it must have been a one time purchase long time paid for? Then you've got domain reg which shouldn't be more than $10 a year or so, no hosting fees because you have your own server. Is it a dedicated server? And if it is it wouldn't exactly have to be cutting edge.

I'm not trying to bust your chops here but am curious how something like this could cost so much? Now if you're including your TIME spent dealing with us crybabies, that's another matter.
