I'm very familiar with the WHT crowd, being an occasional poster there myself...which is why I'll use that place as a last resort only. For research once I've made a shortlist, yes. But not as a place to get more suggestions. There's still quite the noise to signal ratio.

Otherwise, all of those other suggestions are known, and good ones. I'm trying to make a shortlist for initial research (down to the top 20 or so for testing replies and checking their customer interactions...rather than trying to take on the whole field of Windows reseller hosts.)

Part of my problem is that everyone I know is either hosted with my hosting company, or with some other Linux-based host. The one person whom I know - remotely - who does host with a Windows company believes that you have to have an SSL to run InvisionBoard and that all Windows servers are automatically more secure than any Linux server. Not exactly what I'd call a knowledgeable resource
