Anyone had any experience with them? I’m using them for a client, and so far, I’m not really that impressed. For example, does it really take 2+ hours to get a MySQL database set up? On the server I usually use, it takes seconds.

Started a new database set up - and that processed more quickly. Gimme CPanel any day.  Edit: And now the server has crashed. *sigh*

The server seems to crap out very 15-20 minutes or so. It’s quite awful.

They had a bike made on American Chopper, but that's about all I know about them.

That's the problem with oversold shared hosting.

They weren’t my choice, it was a decision made by the client.

And heavily advertised in the US. Not my choice, as I said. but I fear the over all experience for the site visitor will be poor when it’s up and running. All I can do is report my experiences and hope that they see sense before we get too involved in the site itself.
