If their chopper takes off at the same speed as their website, I'd not have them any time soon, dreaded slow :(, so it must be a joke :P

It probably is a joke, but over on another forum I begged for any of the web hosts to do a skin like that. It ought to be a great hit with younger customers. I was calling it the "New York Service Style". : )

Sadly, I couldn't get a single one of the hosts to go with that even as a spinoff brand.

Idi Admin... :wallbash: ...I did not see that coming... :wallbash:

Nice cheat with the killer penguin...I like that one.

Tech support is so bad these days most of the replies wouldn't really shock me.

btw...that website is a marketing ploy...

They do nothing but promote another website, which actually sells website hosting and such...

Very clever technique, and also rather amusing :)
