    54 ==== response ==== 
    55 Hi David~ 
    56  
    57 Thank you for your request.  I understand that your company assists 
    58 the education profession in publishing professional looking websites 
    59 and wanted to let you know that WebFarm, a sister company of 
    60 Freeparking, now offers reseller pricing for web developers, 
    61 integrators & intellectual property manage.  So the price I'm listing 
    62 will be to your company as a reseller on a WebFarm plan. 
    63  
    64 The Dedicated Linux Server 
    65  
    66 *Fees: $249 +GST per month (2 year contract) + $99 Set up fee + you 
    67 would probably want to add a second 73GB SCSI for addt'l $25 +GST/mo. 
    68 *Server Specs: 73 GB SCSI HDD, 1 GB RAM (we can throw in extra 1 GB) 
    69 *Traffic: unlimited NZ, 15 GB monthly international 
    70 *Websites supported: 100 
    71 *Support: unlimited technical support 
    72 *Site management: SSH, FTP & HTTPS access 
    73 *E-mail: catch-all, unlimited e-mail accounts, webmail, etc 
    74 *Development Features: PHP, Perl, Python & Java (Tomcat) 
    75 *Advanced: ulimited subdomains, unlimited domain parking 
    76 *Database: unlimited MySQL 4.x 
    77  
    78 Note: If your international traffic requirements increase, our next 
    79 plan is $399 +GST/mo with 30 GB of monthly international traffic 
    80  
    81 I just wanted to let you know that these are proper 1U SCSI Acer 
    82 Servers, of superior quality to the cheaper ID machines. 
    83  
    84 Please let me know if you would like any additional information and 
    85 when you're ready to order we're happy to assist you. 
    86  
    87 Kind Regards, 
    88 Shawna Murray 
    89  
    90 ===== Considerations ===== 
    91  
    92 David - My thoughts: the 15GB plan for international traffic seems fine for the time being - as long as we can upgrade to the 30GB plan during the contract. Can you confirm this? The extra 1GB on ram that they want to throw in - is this part of the deal, or an extra charge? Lets go for the extra 73GB SCSI. Also confirm company's backup policy/procedures & make sure that you're comfortable with this. Can we get an estimate on the time from order placement to having the server running? - Cheers, Wayne 
    93  * emailed -- DavidMoore [[DateTime(2006-03-23T21:16:19Z)]] 
    94   * nb: with SSH access we can continue to run our current backup script 
    95  * so we're looking for an invoice of:  
    96   * $249 + $25/month = $299/month + GST x 24 months 
    97   * =$7176 (hosting) + $99 (setup) = $7275 + GST
