- chasd00 1y agoEl Paso aside, the only place in West Texas I can think of that may have a datacenter is Sul Ross University in Alpine but i doubt it. ..there's probably not even one in El Paso.
- hk1337 1y ago> West TX FYI, there actually is a city called West, so it would usually appear as "West, TX" or West TX". It's actually between Dallas and Austin though and not in the west.
- meandthewallaby 1y agoI assume you're just correcting capitalization, but for clarity's sake, the aforementioned Bitcoin mines are in west TX, the region with oil derricks, wind turbines, and tumbleweeds, and not West, TX, the town with the Little Czech Stop and delicious kolaches.
