Looked into this a bit more with some of the deals on, it looks like we can get a newer server with a faster CPU, and at almost half the price we are paying now. I'll need to see the invoice (vs the "offer in the shopping cart") to make sure, but we might be able to squeeze two years of fees on a new server with what is collected so far. So that's encouraging!

Well folks I ran out of time to look at migrating it so renewed at the usual price to keep continuity - the deals I saw earlier had disappeared pretty quick before I could pull the trigger and was waiting to see if more would come up. Next year I will move to a month to month renewal so we can time it against Black Friday deals and maybe get more bang for the buck.

Anyhow we are good for another 12 months, appreciate everyone's support in keeping the site online.
