Re: [cobalt-users] Web Hosting

>>ie, I explain that to provide 24x7x365.25 (don't forget the leap year) availability actually requires a little more than a couple of T1s and a generator - that to do it properly requires, 3 redundant O Class connections - 0.5 Million a go - preferably 5, then a data centre with hurricane/earth-quake proofing (5 million with all the routers and fibre installed into the building) and a 24 hours staff - at least 0.25 million for top quality staff - enough to cover 24 hours and three levels of power supply (about 1-2 million) - and then you have world class hosting.

Colocate in California??   You have GOT to be joking!

Inflow?  You mean the company that 2.5 months into the new year hasn't updated it's copyright message to 2001 on their site?  Let me think about it.....
