Very good question ... I have no idea, might take a look myself - pushing people off older, power hungry hardware seems like a benefit for everyone.

  i just ordered a new server from the auction and from the looks of it, the prices are already adjusted. there was a note about adjusting prices in the head of the auction page, and if they weren't already adjusted i should have gotten an email like for the other servers. as it is, i am saving money and i got a lot more diskspace. the cpu is probably better too because the one being replaced is quite old.

    I did a switch just 2 or 3 months that sounds simliar to your before and after. New prices look adjusted already, I wonder how much legacy hardware they are going to be able to clean out of the datacentre when the dust settles on all this.

      i just got another announcement where they offer to skip the setup fees if someone wants to upgrade their auction server to a regular one. it only lists my old servers, not the new one, which pretty much confirms that the new one is already price adjusted.

        Just got the same offer myself - going to be looking into that! There is minor pain to resetting up server - but could be worth it for new metal...
