Well, I think that's a matter of opinion really.  I won't disagree with
the assessment, as everyone has their own set of rules that they design
by - but in this case it's very cost effective.  Rack space at a colo is
very expensive, and this way the web and database servers are here
in-house.  I prefer it this way for small tech companies, so if
something goes wrong, nobody has to drive to the colo to figure it out,
and truck equipment back and forth.

That, and Exodus has soured me on the whole idea of colocation.  I can
only take so much up the ass before I decide not to bend over anymore...
