Fully Managed is NOT Fully Managed in Mainstream

If you're going to be cheap, and get one of the cheapo servers from mainstream hosts, make sure you ask EXACTLY what is included in their 'management'.

Fully managed there is not what we think of fully managed, its barely management at all usually. If you want the management youre used to, be prepared to put another $100-$200 on the table for what you get here, which brings costs over what you usually pay in the adult community anyways.

Also note, that almost EVERY SINGLE 'company' there, is a reseller.

Theres only a handful of actual datacenters, everyone else is a reseller of those datacenters, and most of the resellers suck. Not to mention some of the datacenters themselves.
