By the way, some of my friends are using other "inexpensive" (less than $10 US per month) web hosts and seem to like them ...

BTW, 1&1 (http://www.1und1.de/) is a big german webhoster - apparently they are looking for new markets Don't know what they will be like in the US, but over here they are pretty reliable, have good value for money (though not cheap) and fair conditions.

Howdy Harald,
Their web site says ... "1&1 is proud to be both the world’s biggest web host, and the fastest growing. Our global community is 2.5 million people strong and 2500 new customers sign up every day."
That's a two-edged sword, as many know. I'm sure their data centers are located in Europe, as their location is *never* mentioned anywhere (that I looked) due to the slowness of the connection. My ISP has pinging disabled, so I can't run traceroute either <sigh>.
I signed up for a test to see how it goes. I don't expect too much, since this is a FREE account <smile>.
Cheers,
-Don G.

http://www.1and1.com is somewhere in the US, probably somewhere near NY. Of course I don't know if they are hosting their US-customers there too, but I hope so - at least if they want more US-customers Of course we will soon now, I would like to hear how it goes...
