I don't see how web hosting turn a profit with deals like that.

Good for you, though.

They don't, it's just a way to get the customer in the door and hope they stay and pay the $6.95/mo.

I don't know how they turn a profit on $7/mo, either :)

whoa ! :Q

Yeah I know. Just not sure if it will fit into my wife Dell Dimension 4500 or not. It already has a CD-RW, DVD-ROM can I add a 3rd optical drive?

Also does anyone know where I can find cheap but quality blank DVD's?

They oversell their servers and connections. It works out well for me though, as I just run a small personal site, and I don't use much bandwidth. For $3.95 a month, all I want is relatively fast speeds and enough space to host Movable Type and Coppermine.

Don't jump the gun, read the AT and FW Hot Deals forum threads.

OD B&M only after $20 off $75 coupon which you can find on Google.

OMG it's not that hard. Go into the thread, read the first post, search for the coupon on Google, bring it to the store, and it should end up being $79 - $20 coupon. Happy?

Is Ripplehost another Cyberwings, or are they a decent provider. I remember Rossman pimped both of them :)

BTW, that DVD burner is listed full price on the website. Do they just advertise the clearance price in the stores?

RippleHost is owned by Alan Reid who also runs the highly rated SplashHost.com web hosting service. It's not another CyberWings but in business there is no guarantee that they'll be around tomorrow. Any of the companies I pimp could go under for any number of reasons.

If you want a cheap, reliable and somewhat feature packed web host I think RippleHost.com for $9.99/yr (the $4.99/yr ended like I forewarned you all a few months ago) will get the job done but DO NOT expect any tech support.

Thanks for the warning. Tech support, as you might know, is a requirement of mine. Normally I don't need it except for when their end of things doesn't work, and I expect any business to take care of that regardless of price. What in your opinion is the best web host deal that offers tech support? TIA

edit: my OD didn't have the burner, darn!
