An important Announcement for BSCH

Over the past several years Ben Quinn and myself (Mike Manning) have worked very hard to bring you the BSCH that you see today. Many hours of programming and hard work have gone into every page that you see and use to allow you ease of access for weather data use. During this time period the server has undergone several upgrades and a few parts failed that needed to be replaced, in which I was happy to pay the cost for. Now the system is pretty rock solid and the next big step happening in the next few weeks is a move for BSCH to be transferred from Matilda Internet here in Mackay, to Matilda Internets main data center in Brisbane.

For this very important step to occur, I need to replace the current server with an expensive rackmount server. I did receive an offer for a server earlier however this was too large to fit into the rack down in Brisbane. Due to the limited time I ended up purchasing a slim rackmount server for the move happening very soon.

So please, if you enjoy using BSCH and find the information helpful, can you please help to recoupe the running costs for the website. BSCH has grown to be a very large website over the past few years and some of these running costs can be very high. Even $5 would be welcomed :)
