No, you didn't, but we all knew you were talking about Hetzner. One company, selling consumer-grade desktop parts unfit for use in a production server, in one country, does not lend credibility to statements like you made. Neither does the NYC site with no info, no SLA, and again, desktop parts. It's something like saying salary isn't important to startups because labor costs in China are pennies per hour.

It's 2012 for god's sake, and 32GB RAM servers are still hundreds of dollars a month to rent from any first class data center.
