We use 1&1 to host our servers, both Linux and Windows, and have done so for many years now - in our experience they are the best value for money out there, with service to equal or excel that provided by hosting companies who charge ten times as much! Click on the link below to visit their site.


The issue of software patents is one about which we have strong views. In our opinion, the patent system is misused to restrain competition for the economical benefit of a few but fails to promote innovation. A software market environment is better off with no patents on software at all. Healthy competition forces market players to innovate.
