Larger area to click = faster and easier to use.
The only problem is that they will wise up eventually and fix the issue (especially when you've just walked away with 500TB!) so it is quite a gamble.
If you do ever get a HG-10G Large from them and get bored of it, I will gladly take it off your hands. (Possibly throwing in something to help with the set up fee depending on how much I need it).
They generally work through things blundering on one thing to the next and I'm not sure how they made it this far. At times they cause more trouble than they're worth but when it's all good, it's brilliant.
They're bandwidth can also be pretty hit or miss outside of Europe (and random spots within Europe and even France too). They disregard it with little interest but that's a bit insane considering the Internet is an international phenomenon. Oh, and not to mention peers can get 5kb/s to one server but then their full connection (700kb/s+) speed to another server in the same datacentre (again, met with little interest).
That said, I have been told (explicitly in an incident ticket by staff) that the monitoring on the 10Gbps servers do not yet work with their routers. As a result they have no way to track the bandwidth usage and impose their 40TB usage on them.
10Gbps for 300/month!
The majority of my servers are with OVH though, they're not known for quality support but their prices are pretty low and do have a good control panel. However I guess it's best to find a server that suits your needs.
However this is exercise, routine, early nourishment, and knowing exactly how I'm going to get stuck in -- all things the article touches on.
Or at least, not the most readable. Pressing ctrl+- from that is much better.
On a side note, I feel the front page lacks structure. What are the links? Do they follow on from each other? Or can I just read each "block". Why are they separated into blocks?
When you say teachers, who are you aiming at? Would it be helpful for a university student? Would it help if I'm in the UK and not the US (aside from perhaps different lingo)?
I don't think who the web application is for is communicated effectively.
Only a few minor issues with usability though, like "what does this button do" how do I "find a different category of music" that was solved by clicking a couple of buttons.

As for the throttling, that doesn't happen (as far as I'm aware) however they do have poor peering connections to the US so it's pretty normal to get 5kb/s there which is much worse.
I preferred the third one because their website was more usable -- all work was on one page and all I had to do was scroll down. Unlike the others where I had to click specific projects then view pictures 1, 2, 3, 4... real turn-off when I'm trying to easily compare all three together.
The third also looks like there has been a real effort and focus on usable websites without a disregard for looks which is essentially what I would be looking for.
(a genuine question you need to ask yourself)
