joel, you are a bit late and a bit uninformed. feel free to search the forums to get your knowledge up to par.

and you are completely wrong. I am absolutely not willing to do anything to sell a server. we ensure to maintain proper margins to provide LONG TERM exemplary service to all our clients. there have been plenty of people I have turned down for hosting as its just not at a margin that I feel we can support.

Joel; if you knew anything about hosting, bandwidth, or servers, you would know that real world usage of 1Mbps comes out to about 150GB-200GB. THEORETICAL NUMBERS of 320-330GB, mean NOTHING. A users traffic will have PEAKS and VALLEYS throughout the month. 330GB is only equal to 1Mbit if that 1Mbit is used FLAT, throughout the entire month with no dips below or above, THEN it equals 330GB. Tell me a customer who has a FLAT LINE of traffic 24x7 for 31 days?

That .15/GB suddenly becomes $22/Mbit, which all of a sudden is cheaper than that "shit" you call hosting in San Diego.


Oops am I being vulgar and rude? Stop trashing me because you have no clue what the fuck you are talking about.
