Does anybody know what has happened to Radio Just A Minute? I was listening up to a few days ago on radio.net, broadcasting from the US, then it all went quiet.

He has Major Tech issues- he posted about it at the JAMER Facebook page

JAM fans!
We are sorry to announce that the JAMmer server finally has drawn her last breath. She struggled in the end, as we all know, worked so hard to serve us all. But everything has its end - also servers.

I do not know exactly when a successor will be up and running, but I am afraid it may take some days - maybe a week before we once again can enjoy decades of Just A Minute.

...

Let's use these days to send warm thoughts to BBC for having made - and keep making - these timeless wonders of magical moments they call... Just A Minute.

I will keep you all posted on the progress.

So, I had some time last evening to dismantle the old server. I had to actually PRY the machine open, the laptop battery were so swollen and deformed with time that it skewed the entire internals of the machine, I could not take it apart the regular way via screws, had to break myself in to get to the hard drive. So now the old lady is nothing but a pile of rubble.

But what a fantastic durability on that little toy (yes really - it was practically a toy. The model is pictured in this image). This little laptop has been running as a server now for what must be 7-8 years or so - constantly, without a seconds rest except during reboots - streaming JAM to the world. So kudos to ASUS for the work they did with this little lady.

I hope to get started the installing next week, but I'll keep you posted.

Thanks for that delmelza. I thought the explanation was most amusing.
