[thelist] looking for serious hosting

[Tom Webb]

Again my experience with CIHost is that they responded quickly to any 
problem we have had.  CIHost had some growing pains and experienced some 
problems but they have been overcome.  They responded quickly to any 
problems we have had.  All my customers have not had the experiences with 
CIHost that you have had.  They have been extremely helpful when setting up 
the service for all our customers and I find their service people competent 
and friendly.  I have extensive IT background therefore I have been able to 
pinpoint the problems that  we have experienced and that helps with all 
ISPs.  I will still recommend them to my customers.
