That's been my experience as well. They want you to buy their *Business
Class* service at twice the price (same bandwidth, of course) if you want to run a
server. If you're fortunate to have Optimum Online, they gave you a full 1Mb
upload, and up to 10 down.
As for those guys putting their rack in a non-climate-controlled garage...
can you say *Meltdown*?! They must have money to *literally* burn. They'll have
to learn the hard way, I guess. They'll probably get all kinds of multi-legged
creatures making their nests/spinning webs inside of 'em, too. Accumulated
spider silk does wonders to those small fans.
Thinking of which... time to clean-out my transmitter, soon. :)
