Nice,

Count me in on any advice/recommendations you need Mike.

I'm helping large broadcasters move into the world of the free and it would be 
nice to help the little companies too.

Server hosting, backup and DR would be the ones I'd be interested in helping 
with as so many companies are crippled by the loss of a server or a website 
or email when it could be a matter of pounds to get a cheap DR setup.
