"Unlimited Databases" - I take it the database space used is included with your quota??

Like I say - each to there own - I pay aout £5 a month for 2 gig space, 75 Gig Transfer a month, 2000 ftp account / email account (more than enough eh), anon ftp, 10 MySQL and 10 Pregsql (or whatever you call it). I wont say who (its USA and yes it runs on linux) but im more than happy with it..
I already have 2 *nix reseller accounts with i-web but that is not what we're talking about, I have ASP applications I want to convert to use MS SQL ... try doing that your £5 linux account. Windows hosting has ALWAYS generally been more expensive than *nix hosting, and if you look around (because I did before I chose i-web for my windows hosting) I doubt you'll find many web hosts that offer what they offer for the price.
