AOL DOWN 15 hours so far
Brian
AOL DID IT AGAIN! They're system crashed and we gotta love it...except
the stupid shit is starting to annoy me...wonder when AOLame will be
back up. Anyone else notice that the undernet server that AOL owns
washington.dc.us.undernet.org is down also.

Wednesday), I was able to use AOL name servers but all the other stuff I tried
to ping, like ftp.aol.com, www.aol.com, mirrors.aol.com, timed out on the ping.
I didn't try to ping all the servers associated with these names. (A lot of
internet companies have traffic control by alias. If you ask Yahoo's name
server "Where is www.yahoo.com", one time you will get "www.yahoo.com is really
an alias for www12.yahoo.com" and the next time you will get "...an alias for
www5.yahoo.com".

Apparently they failed in their search for people that will "Dominate The
Internet With AOL." Now I know why they are running those adds trying to
attract UNIX talent. . . .

If they are still using those cast off bank computers (Stratus) they
deserve to crash. That stuff was lame 3 years ago and we all know what 3
human years is in computer years.
It looks like AOL has had a wonderful time with the profits and paid very
little attention to equipment upgrades or even proper maintainence.
Somehow this doesn't surprise me.
I've heard that the new Mac software is what brought it down - and they
expect Mac users to download this crap and install it on their computers.

if *they* paid me, and not the other way around. And as a Mac user, AOL 2.7
or 2.8 or whatever it is by now would probably screw my system into
oblivion.
Let's see. If *I'm* charging *them* $9.95 for five hours, plus $2.95 for
each additional hour, and rounding up the way they used to do, I'd have
made $54.20 for their blackout.
Nah. Still not worth putting their crap on my computer. Would probably
destroy every extension in my system. I'm not into re-installing my system
on a daily basis.
Cheers!

I was reading an article in my local paper about the AOL crash and it said
that someone wrote in a newsgroup "AOL DID IT AGAIN! wonder when AOLame will
be back up" in response to the crash.
