Would just like to mention the fact that no mud can run on 2 megs of ram. And MudTech offers a 8 meg quota. Go over 8 megs? $2 a meg/month, not $10. Sure, $35 sounds like a wonderful deal, but compare: them us $35 for 2 megs $55 for 8 megs $95 for 8 megs Still $55 for 8 megs $135 for 12 megs $63 for 12 megs. $175 for 16 megs $71 for 16 megs And for 16 megs of ram, with the 6 month discount: them us $165 for 16 megs $65 for 16 megs If you run a very low impact mud, this is a great deal, and I hope you do well with them, but if you are like everyone else, and have a nice sized mud, or desire a nice sized mud in the future (and who doesnt want to expand their mud?) it's gonna get very expensive very quickly.
