Re: [PLUG] Domain registrar thoughts and Mediawiki


If you want high quality hosting that never goes down and be treated like 
a real customer not just a number:

www.quonix.net

But be prepared to pay more then the discount outfits. When I say pay 
more, I mean around $10-$15 a month, not $10 a year.

You get what you pay for. Pay crap, get crap.
