Given that
a) We've already said we're OK with spending $100/month at ServerMatrix,
and have the cash to support that for nearly 2 years without further effort
b) We've already said that we want to get on and do it ASAP
c) Sysadmin contains the people best qualified to know whether not going
dirt cheap will prove longterm value (not least in not having to migrate it
all again - John perhaps wasn't explicit enough in expressing how
significant that is)

why are we even continuing to discuss it? Why not let Sysadmin manage the
$99/month budget we've allocated? We've already *chosen* the options
above...

Cheers
Martin
