    It doesn't say it's a UK2 brand though?

    Dunno, that's what people say. http://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/38473#Comment_38473
    I did a whois to confirm, and indeed it says "vps.net" there like 15 times.

    Yes? And? UK2Group & VPS.net are registered in Utah where as that's in London, probably in an office Rus owns.

    Since vps.net sells shared hosting now i'm assuming they're probably also selling domains.

    Techie does use vps.net for its servers.

    @liam said: What the hell? VPS.net are pretty terrible.. I would of thought they would of partnered with a decent/reliable provider like linode or someone.

    They do have a cool domain name tho.

    Also, I haven't been watching F1 lately, but wth is Marussia F1 Team? It's probably also pretty terrible.

    It's not actually a partnership. It's a sponsorship deal, really. VPS.net gives Marussia cash, Marussia puts VPS.net's logo on their cars somewhere and puts out this "partnership" press release (likely written by VPS.net). That's all it is. Marussia doesn't give 2 craps about the company, just whether or not they're paying them.

  • Well they weren't the first vps provider and their services aren't really cloud offerings? Is using a SAN really innovative?

    They are innovative on how they explain their SAN failures. :)
