Today, the very first server we ever commissioned was pulled from the data centre and retired.
kiwi.xeriom.net (or marmaduke.xeriom.net as it was known before 2005) gave us three years of brilliant service. It started life as a shared hosting node and later found its calling as a log server. I personally spent hours tinkering with that box, trying to get everything just right, and it was a great bit of kit.
Thank you, little dude. It’s been a blast.
