OK.. Simplified version - 1 MBit = 320 Gigs of BW, so... your 1600 Gigs is going to equate to roughly 5 MBits. Amazing Dreamhost are not giving hassle, but who knows, it may reflect the numbers of accounts who don't use any bandwidth.

Now... Webair are threatening to offer you a dedicated server for $200/month with your BW - but changes are it would need to be more to handle traffic peaks - so $8/month and a willingness to take the rough with the smooth sounds not so bad
Webby- Thanks for explaining. Seriously. So what your saying is 1MBit=320 gigs transfer. So as of today, I have used 1600/320=5MBits....So at this pace, I will burn 3200 gigs or 10 MBits by the end of the month. So if I was to get a "box", I would need a 10MBit plan. (for $200) Why the fuck would I do that? BTW- I pay 9.95/month...I got ripped off.

What I dont get is this traffic peaks and such, thats when people have to pay overage? Im not being a wiseass no more, I seriously dont understand this whole thing. Teach me my friend
