| Does somebody want to say me his/here experience with this host (If its a good host, I'll maybe spend more than originally wanted )
Searched the forums, and found very good reactions and none negative element, is it true? or just a dream ?

| They are good. Support is outstanding, and since their move, uptime is 100%.
We've been with them for about 6 months now and are very pleased.

| 100 %, a dream come true, but how do they do the updates that requires a reboot then?

I don't know. I'm just reporting my experience. We ping a site there every half hour, and have not had a negative yet.
I guess there will be one sooner or later, but support is so good, I'm pretty particular it won't last long.

| Half hour checks don't give a very accurate picture. They're better than nothing (or hand checking) though.

| 30 min checks are good enough for us... especially when backed up with the knowledge that response time will be pretty instant (and top notch) should we hit a problem.
Putting it into context, of our 40-50 hosts, maybe 6-8 others are on a similar level over the last 6 months. And more and more of those 40-50 hosts generally are improving, as we bring in new hosts to replace the rubbish.
Managing this lot though.... with these stress levels I don't expect to die old!

| Ok, I'm almost convinced, but whats this, can't find it on their site what it means:
Package(s) Prorated
Want to know what it is, because it is $17.47

| Thank you, they called a few minutes ago to verify my credit card information.
Now everything should be fine now... I'm waiting till the account is set up .......

| I've been with them for about 4 months now and like everything about them, price, spec, uptime, help desk...
Which leads me on to the fact that one of the people at Dinix who helped me with a support call was called Douglas Kuntz. He was still polite to me after I pointed out that he had a funny name. I mean, who the hell calls their kid Douglas?

| If a server is properly configured, a reboot is only required for a very serious remote root exploit in the kernel, and that is rare. BQ Internet reboots servers about once every year just to gain new features which have been added to a kernel.
