My employer's ISP has been promoting new servers - where one can rent a piece of one, or the whole thing.

The ISP represents these servers as being bullet-proof (they _do_ run Linux), and expertly maintained.

So it was a little disconcerting to see "lame server" messages in the log after we browsed the ISP's promotional site (if they can't set up DNS properly, can we trust them to do the REST of the job well?)
