    WGT could forgo the commercials and make us pay green fees instead - so you can get that 30 seconds back.

    How does that sound to you.

    How much do you think it costs WGT every month to stay in business?

    It's my understanding they have something like 50 employees now that expect to get paid regularly, and WGT will have other business expenses including internet access.

    A big cost is the electricity needed to run and cool the servers WGT uses. Someone mentioned they contract with http://www.datapipe.com/ in New Jersey.

    Environment

    • Dual interlock pre-action dry-pipe fire suppression system (two events required to activate)
    • Raised floor cold Plenum supply to provide uniform cooling distribution
    • Relative humidity range from 40% - 60% RH
    • Temperature range of 72°F +/- 5°F
    • VESDA smoke detection systems, above and below raised floor

    Power

    • Contracted fuel suppliers on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week
    • Facility fed by multiple power grids
    • Five generators rated at 1.8 megawatts each with 20,000 gallons of fuel capacity - N+N architecture
    • Pre-negotiated one hour advanced notice contact for any pending rotating block outages
    • Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system N+2 architecture

    Network

    • Carrier-neutral facility fed by multiple Tier 1 providers, via redundant MPOE fiber vaults
    • Redundant fiber sources, aggregate switches and core routers
