We’ve spent plenty of time setting up domains / hosting for clients but have never really been satisfied with some of our providers / support / pricing.
So we’ve become resellers for domains, web & e-mail hosting and can be a “one stop shop” for sale, supply and service of your on-line needs especially when time is a factor.
Links to the reseller portals will be up shortly if you wish to purchase yourself or drop us a line to discuss your needs and we can take care of all the technical backend and save you the headache.
He’s a Pinball Wizard

All work and no play makes jack a dull boy…
One of the “fun” projects we’ve been working on for some time is (re) building an arcade console.
The unit was originally a hacked Amiga with some scary wiring in an original case. After it burnt out it was time for v2.0.
So we’ve squeezed a Pentium 4 box in, replaced the aging CRT with a fresh one and hooked up the arcade controls via a USB interface. Just add an emulator and hey presto – countless hours of reliving the days down at the deli / fish and chip shop.
I’m sure if we’d fitted a coin mechanism to it we would have been able to retire by now
When it’s not getting used for relaxation it doubles as the bandwidth monitor for the office network and runs photo promos.
