I used to have several managed servers with RackSpace. Way too expensive and I had a server crash that took them 12 hours to fix. For the rates they charge, that was unacceptable. Now I have a T1 line at my office. I have replaced my two managed servers with four (they aren't as powerful) and haven't had more than 30 seconds of downtime in the six months since I started this. If/when my bandwith requirements exceed the capabilities of my T1, I would love a data center like this. This is a fine and dandy for someone like me who needs a few dedicated servers of our own but this wouldn't work for DH. Your rates are already ridiculously cheap and I suspect people would rather pay what they pay now for the same service than have more downtime. This is a concept that is working well for me.

That you wanna live in an earthquake zone is fine with me but not with my data. Cheers, HansNL When is the data center in Europe coming along?

Offer more expensive plans with uptimes guaranteed in writing. I would like just the opposite of what you are proposing. Offer more expensive plans with uptimes guaranteed in writing.

A friend has had a total of 11min of downtime with pair in the last seven years, but his monthly bill is somewhere around half of what I pay for a year's hosting. It's a trade-off I'm comfortable making... ...and he's considering the switch too :-) Good-enough-but-way-cheaper is why I use dreamhost.com instead of, say, pair.com.
