Very solid host though. Have been with them for years until we moved to our own datacenter.
I think when I hosted with them back in 1998 (?) I started out at $500 per Mbit lol. I was paying a fortune for hosting, but back then it was quite common. After like 1.5 years I decided to email them to ask if we could get it cheaper and they changed it to $200 per Mbit and I wished I had asked them much sooner. I think I paid at least 25K a month in hosting back then.

There's an important lesson for every one there, review your hosting regularly, it's easy to just let it tick along nicely and just keep paying without realising that 18 months into your contract your hardware may not be up to scratch for the money you are paying by todays standards, the kit advances all the time, more bandwidth for the buck etc, all you need is a good account manager who you can check in with now and again.
