Well, you're not likely to get it for the $8.95 that Godaddy charges.
Their abuse department does a remarkably good job, considering their
volume and margins.

Perhaps the message here is that you get what you pay for.  For a rock
bottom price, You get rock bottom service.  There are registrars that
charge considerably more and provide considerably more service.

ObOperations: I need a 1.5Mb net connection. I'm planning to pay
$29.95/month, since I see lots of ads on TV for places offering that.
Oh, and I expect five nines reliability and you can bet I will
complain loudly and bitterly when I call in an outage at 3 AM and get
the answering machine.

R's,
John
