Here I came across one:

Because of DonHosts reputation and FastHosts it just terrible for other webhosting companies and of coarse the customer. So are some too look out for:

MCID Hosting - http://www.micdhosting.com
-----------------
DonHost Reseller
I just thought this was funny, take their tour here:
http://www.micdhosting.com/main.php?section=home

and then take a tour here:

http://donhost.co.uk/company/index.html

Doesn't it look a little TOO familiar?
----------------


Technolojik.net
----------------
Simple FastHosts reseller. BAD, BAD, BAD.
Enough said...

Currently investigating these:
http://www.tranquilityhosting.net/
but seems to be a clone of http://www.micdhosting.com . Just look at it like everything copy and pasted together.

http://www.go2search.org/

and some more to come...

DonHost reseller....

http://www.host4students.com/
------------------
I dunno about this one, I am not too sure, but this site and this one http://www.go2search.org/ have the same DNS.
Domain servers in listed order:
NS1.TURBODNS.CO.UK
NS2.TURBODNS.CO.UK

And they can't spell, look at their title: "afforalble webhosting"

http://www.az-webhost.com
-----------------
I believe these people are fasthosts resellers or Webfusion resellers. Well look at their images, they come a mix from fasthosts and Webfusion and look at their terms:

http://www.az-webhost.com/terms.shtml

and

http://fasthosts.co.uk/terms.html

http://www.1000rpm.net/faq.shtml
----------------
I just have to say these people just copied the infamous TacidBlue FAQ. And if you remember the TacidBlue tour which came from virtualis look at this :
http://www.1000rpm.net/tour.htm

only thing different is that they made it in Flash now.
and http://www.1000rpm.net/services.shtml and http://donhost.co.uk/products/hosting.html bottom images look VERY familiar.

I guess this is it for now.

I like the Cicso 2500 (1 T1 plugged in) and the 3COM Switch 3300 ;) I just had to throw that in there

In their defense, I remember I had something like that in '95. When I started with dialup in '95, I had a Livingston PM3er10, a bank of 8 Hayes 33.6 modems ($1600 OUCH), an Adtran TSU, etc... all sitting on my desk!

Those were the good 'ol days!!!
