If we're going to be honest, we'd be smart to assume 
therefore that migrating to a different Servermatrix box 
would set us back about US $200.  I have to say I'd be 
voting for the biggest and fastest box we can get for 
$99/month - that would certainly obviate the need to make 
such a switch in under 12 months, possibly longer, and I'm 
fairly confident it could run our main web presence later 
if we chose to do that.

Oh, btw, for those of us who wouldn't know, I'm one of the 
eouk people who admins the current server and the person 
who did most of the migration work last time around for the 
lists.
