True. Even removed has one!

maybe someday!

Are you talking about something like this?
DC20 Duo 2 E6300 1.8 GHz 2GB 2 x 200GB 2TB Monthly $185 Monthly

Or would this one be a lot better?
DC24 Duo 2 E6400 2.1 GHz 2GB 2 x 200GB 2TB Monthly $205 Monthly

Anything more pricey than that is out of my comfort zone for now.

Man I knew I'd ask so many questions I'd scare everyone away! Darn it!

And I had one more too... I wanted to know if I was going to be able request that the server be set up to have urls in wordpress that looked like this:
domain.com - Get online with a domain name and web hosting
instead of this:
domain.com - Get online with a domain name and web hosting

The only difference between the E6300 and E6400 CPU is $20/month. I don't recommend going for the DC24 server since the DC20 will do everything you need it to do and then some. In a hosting environment, you're not likely to see the difference between the two CPUs.

As for your other question, yes, this is a simple mod_rewrite tweak that Support can apply to Apache.
