The only thing I am really looking forward is native IPv6 in Zurich with BlueVM. I have very good experience with US servers, but more and more I am deploying outside US. In fact, this seems to be a new trend in offerings recently and there does seems to be demand in servers to be based outside US.=20 Nevertheless, I am quite happy with having instances in both US/East and West with others. I am sure Linode (IPv6 enabled) should get a mention too -- one can run BSD there. Naturally, one can run a relatively good instance (not t1.micro) in AWS with FreeBSD. You can start with a provisioned disk and then growfs it -- something not possible with NetBSD/OpenBSD. (Workaround: Create a new rootfs and attach and cpio it). --=20 | _o _ |_)o_ _ _ =20 |_|_|(_||_|_> | \|/_/_(_) - Lucius.Tel -------------------------------------- ++ When in panic, fear and doubt, ++ ++ Drink in barrels, eat, and shout. ++
