I mentioned it because I'm moving to Baton Rouge and couldn't find a good home
ISP like Speakeasy so I moved my servers there.  I've only been using it for a
little over a week, but so far it works great (I'm using the Debian Etch
option but there are several others).  I tried it based on the recommendation
of a friend who has been using it over six months with no problems.  He says
their customer service is top-notch as well.  They seem to be doing well since
they have a large backlog of new account orders.  At $20/month it makes more
economic sense to use them for servers and get a cheap Cox internet connection
than to use Speakeasy at $65/month anyway.
