Godaddy is a fine Domain Name Host. I'm not so sure it is a good web host.
And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

Everyone has their favorites. I think most B.orgers use ... the name escapes me, drat it. I seem to be alone in my appreciation for GoDaddy. They're especially quick with their customer service and have great hold music. I've never had trouble with uptime, and the one time I was hacked it was my fault.

Hey. New board.
I like Dreamhost. I've never tried anybody else, but they've been stellar for me.
ETA: I have used a student's GoDaddy hosting account and I find it much harder to navigate their control panel interface.

I've got Dreamhost and I've been pretty happy with it.

I've used Dreamhost, godaddy and ipowerweb.
I don't love godaddy, but agree with Deena about the customer service. I've had a pretty good experience on that front though the godaddy user interface is so chaotic as to be seizure inducing.
My ipowerweb account was hacked today and I'm having trouble getting that resolved.
Never had a problem with Dreamhost, so can't speak to their service.

I'm still working on the problem of converting avi to dvd. The product I tried isn't that great afterall.
The forums wax rhapsodic about handbrake, but I have a 10.4 bound ppc. No matter where I look, I can't find an old version. Does anyone have a secret hookup for handbrake 9.2 or 9.3. I'm not really worried about non-existent support, if it works.

I don't suppose there is an accurate site that outlines which companies offer high speed internet for a particular address, is there? The joys of moving! Whee! I hope my new apartment has more to offer than just DSL. Sad to say, U-verse not offered in my new city.

I've used DreamHost and am very happy with their responsiveness. I used their Chat to resolve a PHP problem.
I've heard good things about Hostgator, FWIW.
