It is dead for me right now

HiJon89 · 12-29-2004, 10:49 PM

Working for me now.

drpino · 12-29-2004, 10:49 PM

not working for me either...must have changed hosts and the DNS hasn't fully proliferated yet. that would explain it working for some and not for others.

VSEKH · 12-29-2004, 10:52 PM

No problems here.

Dread · 12-29-2004, 10:57 PM

It's working now.... time to spend

DBM · 12-29-2004, 11:03 PM

Same problem. Newegg seems to have vanished.

Probably a DNS problem. If so, I expect the problem to be resolved within a day or so.

drpino · 12-29-2004, 11:11 PM

back up for me. pretty quick response - under 3 hrs from first post.

Sierra_abx · 12-29-2004, 11:16 PM

It could have been a storm-related outage. Newegg is in Southern California which has been getting pounded by the weather.

jblaz · 12-29-2004, 11:33 PM

yeah it did that to me also, was wondering what was up....all fixed now

Briton · 12-30-2004, 01:31 AM

Yeah, just got home from the movies and its working fine now for me, too.

Sharkims · 12-30-2004, 02:00 AM

It is likely that the website got moved, during the process the DNS updates were scattered. Which is why some people could access it and some could not.

being hacked wouldn't surprize me, they make life a little extra bit of hell for every one else that sells any thing, especially local computer shops

The site seems to be working fine today. They may have heard that pointreyes made a New Year's resolution to purchase less hardware and they shut down in mourning for a couple days.
