It do interested me tought, especially how they designed their hardware architecture to match their need. Their apps is quite different from other web startup, I think each user got his/her own DB instance. We all heard stories how facebook or twitter which data is stored in one huge DB scale. I'd like to know how 37signals did it and looking forward to their next article.
