[CLUE-Talk] RFP - web host

[William]

If bandwidth use will be low and you're that anal about it, do it yourself.  I do.  I run my own
bank of several servers over an ADSL line (1.2mbps u/d, 20Gig per month) and it more than meets my
needs -- running about seven domains with fully featured dns/web/ftp/pop/smtp/nntp/irc.  :)  "If
you want something done right, you sometimes have to do it yourself."  Besides, I obviously don't
pay anyone for hosting fees and get all the e-mail addys and domains/sub-domains that I could ever
need.  ;)
