The crew at LoadingReadyRun and Desert Bus for Hope would like to extend our thanks the following companies for generously contributing the technical expertise that makes this event even remotely possible.

Shaw Communications supplies high-speed cable for the live stream of Desert Bus for Hope, free of charge. It’s easy to gush over the neat toys donated from gaming companies and the like, but this is a donation that almost cannot be overstated. Shaw gives us the “fattest pipes” to run the all-important HD live stream and reach all the willing donators around the world.

ServInt is a web hosting service provider based in Virginia. They have provided all the hosting for Desert Bus for Hope (which is substantial). Donating web service isn’t as exciting as donating a custom made N7 jacket, but every time you load the site and don’t get an error, you can thank the generous folks at ServInt. Visit these magnificent folks at http://www.servint.net.

But technology doesn’t stop with fat pipes and hosting. Boutique Mac has loaned us an amazing 12 core Mac Tower! This means we can host multiple cameras simultaneously! Think of it as their way allowing you to see what we do from a different point of view. Over and over again.

Once again, our deep and personal thanks from the entire Desert Bus crew to our 2012 technical sponsors.
