DataCenter
Barry Dixon is expecting you about 4:30 at the ViaWest data center next Wednesday (Dec 5). You're responsible for getting yourself there and back. Feel free to carpool or whatever. The data center is located in the Canopy building at 333 S 520 W, Lindon, Utah 84042. Take exit 273 from I-15 and its just east of the freeway north of Home Depot. Here's a map. The tour will take about an hour.Posted by sam at 10:48 AM | Comments (0)
