View Full Version : yet another 100GB host!
http://www.compassionateweb.net/web_hosting/plans.html
what do u guys think? a week ago when i went there the bandwidth limit for that plan was 200GB, apparently they realized something and lowered it to 100gb....
RobbertC 05-14-2002, 07:32 AM Lol, 100 GB traffic for $12.95 a month. That's $0.1295 a GB!!
p1net 05-14-2002, 07:50 AM That is worse than unlimited bandwidth!! :eek:

Mefod 05-14-2002, 07:53 AM seems strange, i do not trust it
i emailed the guy and asked him about it and i got a super quiick reply (i did this like a week ago so i dont have the email) and he said like he is legit and its not stolen bandwidth and its for real....

I wish I was thinking about starting a hosting business or my own business for that matter when I was 14. :D

eddy2099 05-14-2002, 09:09 AM I tried to get to the site but got a 'Cannot find server' . Guess it was good while it lasted.
coight 05-14-2002, 09:30 AM Sheesh, we were going to introduce the same thing for $15.95, spoils my plans. I am working on a $4.95 model now. :D

There's nothin' wrong with being young! I'm 17! :D
CoreFighter 05-14-2002, 11:28 AM maybe they host it on cogent bandwidth server with 10 mbits link, so it never went out of limit and you get all the packet loss? :rolleyes:

OH yah wait till I'm on the market, then I'm going to offer Googabity for 12.95 per year
( announcer voice )
Yes that's right, you can have your own Googabity of bandwidth for 12.95 per year, call 1-800-555-1212
lower voice very fast speaking
all order are subject to surcharges of 1 server setup 20,000, bandwidht connnection 2.7 million, disk space 800 per megabyte.
loud voice again
Yes yes yes, come and order now.....
UNITS OF MEASUREMENT ( i think i got it correct )
bit = smallest unit of digital information, i.e. ones & zeros
byte = a set of bits
Bps = bits per second
Kbps = kilobits per second =1000 bits per second
Mbps = Million bits per second =1,000,000 bits per second
Gbps = Gigabits per second = 1,000,000,000 (one billion)
bits per second
Tbps = Terabits per second = 1,000,000,000,000 (one trillion)
bits per second
Ebps = Exabits per second = 2^40 bits per second
Pbps = Petabits per second = 2^50 bits per second
Zbps = Zettabits per second = 2^70 bits per second
Ypbs = Yottabits per second = 2^80 bits per second
Obps = Googabity pers second = 2^100 bits per second

yea, you were kidding.
they appearantly have something to do with netmar.com. dedicated box or something.
i'm tracing into sprintlink, to netmar, then my hops are jumping up to over 150ms and i time out.
