 Uhm, yes it is cPanel.

It's actually accessible too ... I've had no issues, but you have to know
hwo to use relatively new web 2.0 applications. So mouse overs are not
something you can just ignore, but jaws handles them and allows you to drop
down the various menus.

If you want to have a different shell, Tyler you should know how to fix
this. Plus, if you don't, you can always use the users menu on their cPanel
interface to atually change your shell from bash, zsh, and I think csh as
well.

Also, as far as personal storage ... That's fine, just don't go overboard.
Don't use it as a site to serve up mp3's to friends, but if you need to post
some files, keep backups there, or so on, that's perfectly fine.

Take care,
Sina

They offer compilers.
Here are my thoughts on them:

They offer great support--if you mark your ticket below the highest one, 
you'll get a response back within 30 minutes to an hour, and they do what 
they can to help.
They offer tons of space, though that's not really needed, as they don't 
allow you to use the site for "personal storage."
They offer ssh, though  haven't figured out what bash they're using--it only

shows machine name, not the actual path like every other ssh I've been on.
They have ocasional downtimes.
Their panel is custom crafted, and is not c-panel--they don't have an API or

a way to use CPanel, so that's out of the question, if you wanted to resell.


Thanks,

My programs don't have bugs, they're called randomly added features.
