> It's not going to work. Whether or not it really is an attempt to go up against AWS, it won't work. IBM has not been successful in slim-margin markets like low-end hardware (or in this case hosting). I currently have a dedicated server with Softlayer (at one point I had three). I actually started with Rackshack which was consumed by EV1, then merged with The Planet, then eaten by SL. I've been looking to move elsewhere, but this seals the deal. I believe IBM can't help but screw it up.
