I agree with Lisi, I too have had a happy experience since moving to Zen. I have only once gone over the download limit, paid for some extra and still have most of that 'extra' still available if I need it. I have even transferred to Zen as registrar for my startx domain and found them very helpful in getting the transfer organised. -- John Lewis using Debian sid -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk --------------------------------------------------------------
