A month ago I ordered a dedicated server with hardware RAID and cpanel for our growing web design firm here in Chicago. We have clients mostly within a 200 mile radius of Chicago so network speed shouldn't be an issue. Some of the web sites we host are database driven for inventory management, well above what wordpress can handle. The server performs excellent. The big scripts we run are fast with no hiccups. The few support questions we had were quick and they completed the config changes for us, which was great. I've been completely happy and would recommend them.
