Your pizza joint isn't running their own server (which is most probably a good thing).

  No, but they probably have a fairly decent small set of expensive failover servers for their web site and customer databases, and will almost certainly have a desktop to communicate the days' financials back to head office in a different state/country. In a world where mesh networking is a reality, when a franchisee buys into a chain business it will come with local networking hardware, part-and-parcel with the branded window-signs and soul-destroying uniforms. In my personal little dream-future, anyway :-)

    Ummm, yeah - so you've never worked for the hospitality industry huh? (You tell em "$5/month isn't an appropriate webhosting plan for your online ordering!" and they say "Yeah, I can get it for $12/year with GoDaddy!")
