No doubt they have to earn a living, and I will not object
that hosting is worth that much, but it's not hostig what I look for.
I am hosting the domain myself, they would only supply connectivity
(what I'm already paying for except static IP address ), secondary DNS
and mail backup. Actually, I think virtual hosting with my ISP is even
cheaper than what I quoted.
Heartfelt thanks for your input
