You are right. There is nothing like being able to drive to a colo and reset
your own server. I just remember Jim's comments from previous posts about
dealing with the communications carriers. And you don't have to go offshore to
have colocation outside of Zimbabwe. There is Botswana, Zambia, Mozambique,
and South Africa. I was just giving options for him and his users.
