i may be one of those contemplating such issues re having my sites on an AMD dual core rather than a dedi celeron. it is probably my perception of processors with a personal computer environment that always will leave me second guessing. To be honest , i havent had any issues that i have been aware of with the celeron however ... im not sure if i would know with my limited knowledge when and if there was a core meltdown of the server..lol.

Anyways, i am looking forward to the new dedi plans to be made available. i sort of was expecting this in the last six months with the progression and price drop of dual core processors anyways. i have been wanting a memory upgrade for a bit to enhance performance but i also truthfully thought it would be throwing money away because i am sure the celerons are near extinction for dedi plans.

i did find it interesting to read that the intel processor was to be offered when surpass hosting posts this

Our Technology Surpass only uses AMD processors. AMD provides flexibility and cushion for process intensive sites that burst in CPU usage. This way we can lessen adverse effects as much as possible for other users in a shared hosting environment.

Also a suggestion not knowing whther it is of merit or not but perhaps because some of the dedis are becoming dated and sooner than later dual cores will be the norm , perhaps offering a special on "used" dedis for colocation. Thus keeping up with the technology for new dedicated plans and also the ability to sell off the existing equipment to more of an untapped market.

i really sincerely hope to move from a celeron server for peace of mind albiet my old school mentality of computers dictates probably unwarranted apprehensions. ill wait patiently to see what dedicated plans are offered.

a footnote noticing that on the previous site and also i notice the one dedicated plan offers 5 ips but anytime i checked the plans available on the /dedicated it was always 4 ips
