They seem to have had some bandwidth problems/woe whenever I was there. They
charge for downloads, they seek donations (like SymphonyOS), and they try to
take the load off to bittorrent. Maybe they are moving to dedicated with

mind you. They perform all right on DW, so maybe the increased attention has
led to a need to step up, service-wise.
