And here I am with my web sites hosted by professionals but generating my own electricity and purifying my own water. Go figure... I liked having my own T1 connection but didn't really want to be responsible for other people's sites going down. I like the idea of having the box itself hosted in a data center where someone else will press the button while I'm a hundred miles away visiting grandkids or in a movie theater or on vacation in the desert somewhere. There is a limit to the amount of responsibility each of us should take on. Purifying water? Generating power? A snap compared to guaranteeing uptime for someone else's critical business processes. IMO, anyway. And that is from someone that is doing it! -- Kris www.shamrocktrails.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
