Well done.

Thus far it's looking pretty fast to me! No issues yet but since Keith sits next to me, I can always yell at him.

Actually you just need to speak Cisco!

No complaints yet!

It does seem faster and more responsive.

Definatley seems faster to me too...

Hey folks! Has anyone had any negative experience since the FW was put in place permanently on Thursday?

For me, I've had no issues at all, the site seems to be faster than the old FW and we've had zero downtime. I think Dennis is sleeping much better the last few nights!

In case you hadn't noticed, Admin has set up a donation fund at the bottom of the page to send Keith out to dinner. Well, who is Keith? Keith isn't an FZ6 owner and, as a matter of fact, isn't a rider at all. Keith is the Network Admin where I work. I asked him, as a favor to the site, Dennis and myself, to assist Dennis with the new FW. Keith spent the better part of a day and a few hours the following day helping Dennis set up the FW. He's asked for nothing in return. Dennis is asking for donations to show our appreciation to Keith for his volunteer work. Keith is not only a co-worker but also one of my best friends. He's always helped out no matter when you ask.

Please donate if you can. He doesn't know about this yet and he'll be genuinely surprised and thankful to all of us!
