Nelson" To: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Apache Virtual Servers (single IP) In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-isp@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Gentlemen, I have to jump in and add my viewpoint as a customer. I spend my money -- and recommend to my clients they spend their money -- with an ISP who will deliver the service _I_ want and _I_ expect. To whit: if I need a static IP address for a good and legitimate reason -- I _will_ get it or I will change my ISP. If I need a full class C -- I'll go to the ISP who can provide it. The long and the short of this is: why should I give an ISP money who insists on dictating to me? HTTP 1.1 is great -- I'd like to see it become standard -- but it's not. As an aside, I am using lynx much more, because so many ignorant web designers want animated icons and enough gewgaw bulls**t on their pages that I can't get to the real information because of the distraction. I don't waste my time with those who don't deliver what I need and want. If you, as Internet __Service__ Providers choose to ignore me -- and many like me, you will lose the business to those who are willing to provide the service for which we are willing to pay. Sorry for the rant. -- Jay
