And several people have offered over the last few months, including
myself.  I am thinking about a dual xeon with 1 GB RAM that has a load
average of 0.01...  Nightly backups too, with disk a non-factor.  I
asked about bandwidth usage estimates but never got that far :-(

This I simply do not understand.  If there is a need for dedicated
hardware, and it is being offered, then why is it not being accepted?
Didn't CommandPrompt also offer dedicated hardware?

Not wanting to start another heated debate, just wanting to understand
what the deal is - as this topic keeps getting regurgitated without a
conclusion.
