Would it be possible to have 2xFDD instead of HD space? I love the performance of those modern 3.5" floppies and would like to run them in RAID 1. Ah, and is the 1 MB RAM burstable to 1.5 MB in case I have a sudden rush of visitors to my site that is offline most of the time?
I am so happy with your downtime! I will never forget the uptime desasters that I went through with other providers!
Hello, We only run our 3.5" inch floppy drives in a RAID 0. If you want to sacrifice some space, you can go with the 5 1/4" Floppy Disks. We offer 5 1/4" RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 10 and RAID 50,000,000 configs. The RAID 50,000,000 requires at least 500,000,000,000 5 1/4" floppy disks.
As far as the Burst RAM, I dont think it is needed. You would be shocked to see how little RAM it takes to display "Page cannot be Displayed", even if the site is Slashdotted.
Thanks, but we still have room to improve
I love my HostBluff-Box:
But the load average made me suspicious:
Are you sure that you are not underselling?
Yes I did, but my service is not setup yet. I was promised instant setup.
Can I get a full refund, please?

No
Are you sure that you are not underselling?
I am sure we are overselling the heck out of the server. I will need to check with Derrick however we have one tiny problem... Derrick is missing (we will update the blog when or if we find him)
Is that why my server isn't setup yet?
No, My picture can be found in my WHT Profile. that is Derrick Smith, the CEO of HostBluff
Yeah it's not Keith, that's Derrick :P Keith is Hawaiian.

That is true
A bit offtopic, buw how do you make this stuff up? It's just genius. Pure win.
@HostBluff: He wouldn't give me bacon
I have my moments. I bet you will all love what I have in store in the next few weeks. Keep checking the site daily.
On a side note, we just launched our reseller plans. http://hostbluff.com/products/hostbluff-reseller-program/
And another note, Derrick is still missing, I am starting to get worried. He has not even tended to his mid day visit from the local prostitute
Very sorry about that, can I have a ticket number, it should be Tattooed on your left arm. I will be more then happy to research this for you
Yes, summer is here... business will be good on your kiddie meal package.
Just a side note, a Student ID is required for the Kiddie Meal Plans
Can I use my neighbor's strudent id?
'Monthly Downtime : 100.75%'... Minus times Minus = Plus.
Does that mean UPTIME :O ?
Not unless the blood samples match.
Does that mean UPTIME :O ?
No, it means we turn off another users account for 0.75% of each month on top of your own. Its a good deal really.
BTW, we are still looking for Derrick Smith.
These guys couldn't even beat W2Servers in downtime. Bad seller, stay away.
LEB should feature hostbluff on lowendbox.com... it would be really funny.
@HostBluff
Think you could give my dedicated an extra cup of cpus and a liter of ram?
I bet we can come close but I hear they treat their customers worse then us. We will work on that as soon as we find Derrick
That would be classic +1
True
Sure, but it will cost $14,000 per 1/9th of a CUP
@HostBluff I'm very unhappy with HostBluff. They still have stock. I can't make a countdown page for stock release.
We rarely run out of stock, we cram 50,000 customers on each server
I was really excited to see the Reseller plans! I ordered The Bernie Madoff Special and received instant setup, although I selected the "Check & Money Order" option. No worries @HostBluff, I plan to mail in the check tomorrow. (And it may bounce. But by then, I'll be in the Caribbean.)
I sold 1.5 CUPS worth on eBay within the past hour. Its a good think that HostBluff provides the End User support because although I'm happy with the 99.7% downtime, I don't think a majority of my new customers will be.
Just to quote IRC.
<[Derek]> They make you strip naked on webcam if your late 1 day.
Sorry, thats billing
1.5 CUPS Already? Nice.
If your checks bounce, we do send an assassin
@HostBluff Do you do custom setup? I need vacuum tube dedicated server. i'll send schematic diagram.
@HostBluff Good luck to your assassin. Once I pull my Madoff, I'll escape to the Caribbean. This time, I won't get caught.
