      XPost: rec.collecting.stamps.discuss, rec.collecting.stamps.marketplace       From: paitken@CRAPnc.rr.com              As regards reliability of web hosters - you often get what you pay for! That       extra $5 a month that you are trying to avoid may enable the provider to       have efficient, regular backups, redundant independent high-speed links to       the Internet, on-site technicians to take care of problems, the latest and       best software for web and mail servers, new and reliable hardware, etc etc.       Also be aware that some "web service providers" do not actually run their       servers - rather they buy space from some other ISP and then resell it. This       means that when there is a problem and you complain, the people you are       talking to - and paying - are not the ones who can fix the problem.              --       Peter Aitken              Remove the crap from my email address before using.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
