    Are you planning on using a backup agent or software, or just need the space?

    Exactly - I work with them from time to time.

    I don't own the company, nor am I employed by it or on the payroll.

    I'm a director of several other companies too - hence the disclosure.

    The cost on your power bill of running a server 24/7 would easily negate the tiny cost of a shared virtual server from a company such as these guys www.webcore.ie.

    Its just not really cost effective these days to host stuff yourself unless you have real reason to.

    Closing this as we've wandered into ISP-comparison territory, which is against our charter...
