Plus 73 sites hosted on one server.

It didn't crash because of too many users---it was nuked.

2. Here's the beauty of the whole
thing....It has taken the "liberal bloggers" all of about two hours (or less) to figure this out...was just on MSNBC and they are still leaning toward a hacker...what MORANS.

3. Sadly, the attitude which many people have towards ISPs...

Is that since there are ad-supported and free ISPs, it should be dirt cheap.

They view "hosting" as an item dereft of qualities and qualifications. Same, for the most part, goes for computing in general. And it's hurt us in the computer industry, let me tell you. I know many people who are very qualified to provide high-quality services, but have pretty much quit the industry, or are hanging on by their fingernails, because people don't appreciate quality -- they just want to pay as little cash as possible for "that thing" regardless of whether "that thing" turns out to be a house made of straw, or one made of brick. People that feel the need to produce a high quality product and stand by their work need not apply.
