Quick question....just out of curiosity. Why is the x404 server based in the US?

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

And often cheaper too. Why is it a problem? And why were you looking anyway? The only time I've ever bothered to do a few whois's's'sss'ss is when a site has been really slow.

Because I work for the FBI and I got bored. I will leave you to digest the truth of that sentence. Cheaper right, fair enough. I presumed so but didn't know.

If memory serves from when Saspro set it up, he simply had spare capacity on a server that he could use.

I'm guessing that Flagfox is at work here.

It's all to do with money. Rack space costs a fortune in the uk.
