It goes without saying that providing information on the Internet is costly. At
this point the cost has been provided by myself.
In order to continue providing this great information, I am soliciting donations
to help upgrade the websites to allow more functionality to users/hobbyiests.
Currently our 9 jeep sites (1941mb-1945mb.com and 1942gpw-1945gpw.com) run on two
servers which are getting old. Both machines have been upgraded this past year with
the maximun RAM at 4GB each, and 500GB hard drives. This has pushed the BIOS to
it's limit. I have increased the internet bandwidth for these sites to a business
level of performance. Since Nov 2009, these machines have had over 50,000 page views,
thus, the information has value to many around the globe.
All of these enhancements has been provided absolutely free, thus far, because I
love the hobby and history, and enjoy helping others.
In 2011, I want to replace the two servers for better performance and expandability,
such as with a minimum of 8GB RAM that can be expanded to 16GB RAM, and about 1.5TB
or more of Diskspace.
I want to provide the following for users/hobbyiests to enjoy (this next year) such
as :
- Upload pictures of their Jeeps for viewing by others
- Search abilities on keywords in the Restoring section
- Continue on adding Restoring articles
- Ability to generate PDF files on the fly
- much more
All donations that are received will go towards the maintenance of these websites,
the costs associated with operating the websites, and to enhancements of these websites,
as well as, any new wwii jeep websites that may spawn from these.
Special thanks to those who have donated:
