Providing high-reliability professional-quality hosting is certainly
somewhat difficult, and hence expensive.  I think what people are
asking is whether there's a way to get better bandwidth than we get at
home via DSL, but otherwise essentially the same quality of service,
cheaply.  My current quality of service is satisfactory; I'd like to
improve the bandwidth and/or price.  (I wouldn't turn down an increase
in quality of service, but it's not worth money or other sacrifices to
me.)
