Hi Brett, I remember the Digiweb debacle of a few years ago, and don't want to go through that again... Unleash is a possibility, but last time I talked to them they said they'd gone out of the VPS market ( please contact me if I'm wrong Unleash! ), and Voyager only do tiddlers: I'd have to build a dedicated cluster and that wouldn't be cost effective I don't think.
