his website uses ASP classic to serve its contents. I wrote the CMS system for it in the late 1990s, and it hasn’t caused me too much trouble. I can easily add new pages to it without stopping a program, having a build environment handy, or compiling anything. I can change the logic of a page by simply saving a text file.

Currently this website is running on a VirtualBox VM for Windows 2000 Server. It uses 380MB of RAM while running, and that includes the Windows 2000 Server OS, SQL Server 2000, and IIS hosting content on port 80 from a folder called C:\inetpub\wwwroot\www.codebot.org. The total disk space used for the VM is 15GB, meaning I have plenty of room left for other websites. The Linux host proxy serves the VM website and takes care of SSL and filtering to keep the bad guys away from the VM.
