You are very right, but doesn't root access mean "root access"? Maybe being the dummy that I am, I'm missing something here. Also without a control panel I wouldn't be able to resell an account or two. I do have a couple of inhouse Linux machines (server and workstation) but naturally my ISP (cable) doesn't allow web servers or I would put the server live.

But anyways, I really appreciate your advice and feedback, and surely don't mean to argue with you. I welcome all advice, feedback and critisism.

Thanks and I think I speak for many; I really appreciate the work you do for this forum.
