-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've heard nice things about CloudAtCost http://www.cloudatcost.com/ - -- One price ($35) for a VPS forever. Local to Waterloo, so no foreign interception worries.
I have to admit I haven't used CloudAtCost since I self-host as much as I can. But it might be nice to experiment with. I've used shared hosting from CCj/Clearline http://ccjclearline.com/hosting.html (also local to Waterloo) -- Both easier and more difficult because they take care of OS and application upgrades & installation. - --Bob.
