 @scottalanmiller said: How did it go? I think it went really well. It's for an IT Consultant at the University of Pittsburgh. It's a desktop/server support role. I'd really like to get into Linux Administration somewhere if I can, but I'll take this as a growth opportunity if I get it.

 That's pretty cool. @andyw and I used to be third party consultants for UPitt!

You can stall as long as you want as long as they owe you and not the other way around. I had a friend who finally got around to getting them done after 5 years - he was in the same (assuming they owe you) situation. 
- 
 I owe every year so i have to fill mine out by april 15.... 
- 
 That is one heck of a setup for a lab! Did you buy a rack for it, just because? meh - it's only $200 for a rack, why not make it look pretty lol 
- 
 @Dashrender I couldn't even afford the power bill to run those 2 servers! 
- 
 @Dashrender I personally purchased the servers switch and pdu (mostly ebay) myself and got my employer to purchase the rack since they are always complaining about how unorganized my office is

- 
 I really like the rack, its on casters so I can roll it where i want it, then roll it out of the way if not using it. 
- 
 @Dashrender I originally purchased it to play with stuff at home, but decided to leave it at the office and use it here for now. I didn't spend very much money, i got the servers for $75/ea.
