Comment DIY the only way to go (Score 0) 456

Just do it yourself most of the hosting companies i have worked for in the UK just want you stuck with them on a monthly tariff, i can run 6 domains from my bethere.co.uk pro adsl service which gives me 21 meg down and 2 meg upload, i use 123-reg for registering any domains at £.2.99 for 2 yrs i have my own backup power plus the servers i run raise the temperature of my own house by about 1 degree meaning i dont have to feel guilty about the carbon tax as i offset against my own fuel usage. honestly look at running redhat, webmin, virtualmin then forward all mail to google mail and you will not need AV or antispam services. along with that being able to work live on the server via shared drives or direct to screen saves you a lot of time. also if you get stuck doing something just use your favourite serch engine, its a lot better than paying someone you dont know for services you can easily pick up yourself.

long live the british language its already withstood major changes from the 13th to 15th century, i wonder what william the first would think of the way we pronounce things now.

britans have had something to do with every major technological advance since the start of the industrial revolution. see the computer, neuclear bombs, neuclear power, submarines, aircraft carriers, steam engines and manufacturing, it only seems right that the british language is the best suited medium to put ideas forward and impliment them.

how many computer users would we have if all basic operating systems and programming languages were written in dutch or chinese.
