OK... I know lots of you people got hooked on HostPC, thanks to rossman...
Here's my scenario: I want to buy their "budget-a" plan -- and so I click on through their site, just like I was buying the product and on my way to "checking out".
When I get to that point where there is a "finish" button, I'm expecting to have some sort of "new user"/"new customer" link, so I can create an account. There isn't one, exactly... but there is one called "register" -- so I clicked it.
That takes me eventually to a screen where I have an option to either register a domain-name (which I wouldn't be able to, since it already exists and is hosted elsewhere), or to transfer it. I don't want to transfer the registration though. All I want is their hosting service -- and I'll take the responsibility of keeping the DNS records straight. The only other link is one called "log-in" -- but that is for _existing_ customers -- which isn't me.
Does HostPC offer hosting without me also having to transfer domain registration?
If so, what/where am I missing a link to actually buy their service?
With all the posts here at AT regarding hosting and HostPC specifically, I don't recall anyone saying that a "transfer" is required -- and it seems to me that would be a deal-breaker for most.
I've posed this question in the helpdesk section of hostpc, but I'm anxious to finalize my move today, so I thought someone here could help answer those questions.
thanks
