CPU & RAM in a storage box

[Hetz Ben Hamo]

Hi,

Not that I want to open a flame war, but.. $.80 per gigabyte? even I (as "
hetz.biz", my business) sell equivalent service for less then that price,
and my servers are located in Israel. They brag about "international", but
looking at their FAQ, they do a backup to some international location, so as
a user, if you're connected from Israel or you're connecting from US, you'll
be connected to the same server, with all the latencies etc..

Few days ago I wrote about this a post in my business blog, you can read it
