There are quite a few hosting places in Brazil. None I can talk about. google.com.br should yield lots of results. As far as response times, it'd probably be faster if it were down there. How much faster is hard to say. I have access to a machine in Brazil with broadband that I could do some tests for you if you're interested. Is this just for web stuff? -Roberto .===================================. | This has been a P.L.U.G. mailing. | | Don't Fear the Penguin. | | IRC: #utah at irc.freenode.net | `==================================='
