[BlueOnyx:24113] Thanks to all on this list

[New Millennium Internet]

Just a quick thank you to all on this list for your invaluable help and 
assistance over the years i have been on Blue Onyx servers.

I have now given up all of my Blue Onyx servers and gone 100% to PLESK 
on Cloud servers which i must say lets me sleep at night.

In two years i have not had one "not available" or "time out" or 
attempted hack or need to re-boot on my Cloud servers and they are fully 
scaleable on the fly.

Not trying to sell it to any of you guys and i know you love "tinkering 
under the bonnet [hood]". This was just to wish you all well in your 
endeavours and long live LA WEB!

Regards

Nic Carter-Jones
