(*) Unlimited usage with no metered charges (subject to reasonable use policy).
(*) Five 5MB WebSpace accounts
(*) Each [WebSpace account] limited to 300MB of traffic served per mon
(*) Five email accounts
Hmmm ... I won't be signing any service contract that
leaves me opened to unspecified future fees, i.e. what
do they charge if you use more bandwidth than is "reasonable"?
Come to think of it, they simply *cannot* charge for excess
bandwidth if their pricing schedule does not list it
and it is not specified in the contract, now, can they?
But, the pricing seems quite reasonable compare to equiv.
telephone line, local call charges, and ISP fees. And a
2Mbit download speed (when available on "the cloud")
sounds great.
And rule 5: NO SERVERS. <sigh>
