So true.
I am (and always have been) amazed at people who go with the cheapest host they can find...then to another...and another... and then complain because their valuable site always has problems (anything from loads slow to bad situations like this).

It doesn't make sense to me. If you are a student or teen with a blog or something for you and your friends that's great, go as cheap as possible and save your $$.
But if the site matters why don't people put it where they can count on it? Is $60-$100 extra too much of an investment when it can cost that much for one fill-up in an SUV or dinner for 2 at a decent restaurant these days?
I also thought most of us these days offered "one click" downloadable backups in control panels. Isn't it fairly "standard" these days?
