it's more like this..
we have location A, with servers, but our web site is not hosted on them
because location A has low bandwidth.. location B is utah, our current
server is colocated at a Utah ISP because, before january or maybe as
early as december, we didn't have a US Office.. we're moving location A,
in oakland, to location C, in Brisbane, CA (just outside of Frisco) and
there will be a 45MB connection to the net at location C, where new
servers will be set up to host the site.. there are no transition problems
*unless* we put something up on the current server, which we're not going
to do b/c we're just going to have this be a low-key thing..
