> Hi gang,
> 
> Being that I host several PHP driven websites, this isn't 
> completely off topic.
> 
> I used to use RackSpace, but the high prices didn't match the
> nonexistant service.  So I switched to Server Beach, where the prices
> rocked but they refused to provide backups, even when I offered to pay
> extra.  So I switched to aPlus (who got a high rating as a hosting
> provider) - and was lied to by the sales agent up front; lied to by
> another who promised a customer I referred I would get credited one
> month; and then told to bugger off when I had complaints.  And after
> half a year their backup is still not implemented anyway!
> 
> Are any of you out there happy with a dedicated provider, and paying
> in the $100 - $250 range?  Do you get backups?  Do you get printed
> invoices?  Do you speak with a human when something goes wrong?
> 
> I'm looking to mirror Mambo in the US, and also am gearing up to
> launch a new online magazine (more on that later, the domain will blow
> your minds), and have no interest in spam or pr0n - my content may be
> misspelled, but is nevertheless clean.
> 
> Anybody out there lend a helping hand to a distressed and 
> distraught soul?
> 
> -- Mitch, devastated and annoyed at the threat of looming DNS updates
