Looking to Move from EV1?
IgD asks: "Our small company has been a customer of EV1 for well over a year. We have a single dedicated server (a Red Hat box) and pay about $150/month. We get about 400 gigabytes per month for our bandwidth limit. Up until the SCO fiasco, we had been generally pleased with EV1. For obvious reasons we decided to move on. We didn't make the decision lightly. Migrating our server is going to result in a terrible inconvenience. The subject of EV1 and SCO has been covered in multiple articles here on Slashdot. Many have discussed moving to other providers such as ServerMatrix.com and ServerBeach.com. Dear Slashdot, where should we take our business?"
EV1 is very similar to the date rape victim here. I don't think you should punish them by lost business. Instead, continue to support them and voice your frustration in writing. If you are happy with their service, but not happy with their policy, allow them to change before making this call.
If I happened to use your Redhat server for something important to me, then I'd be mighty pissed if you moved providers for no real good reason.
I really hate Dan Patrick.
