And I'm sure there are other providers too. I prefer Globalcenter, not least because of their non-destructive fire suppression. I don't know what Connect were thinking when they put sprinklers in their data centre. I wonder what they'd do if you asked for a quote for enough rack space to hold 3 servers, a router, a switch and an umbrella? ...R. ---- email "unsubscribe aussie-isp" to m a j o r d o m o @ a u s s i e . n e t to be removed. |
