Are you finnished yapping yet???
Just because 12register.com has no webhosting packages
on the site does not mean that I dont do hosting as well.
I run a complete ebusiness solution including domain registration
and web hosting services.
Just stop whinning. Besides, when did this
list become a soap box?? This is for Cobalt users, So BEAT IT!!
