|

Gate Hosting is beta testing their ASP hosting product. You can sign up now and participate in their beta test.
gate.com/windows/
If you stay through the beta test, when the product goes live you will get some gifts and 90 days of free hosting. |

Very interesting. It is not clear from that page if the beta testing is free or only available to current cusotmers. Has anyone succesfully signed up and can fill us in? _________________ I shine |

If you look at the bottom it does say it is free. They do require a credit card, but that is only for verification purposes. Also it seems like participation is limited to 3 months.
Does not seem like a bad deal though, bascially you can get 6 months of free hosting for helping them test it out.
The rules are listed:
Quote: | Windows Beta Rules and Regulations
There are no restrictions for sign-up. We welcome everyone to participate in the Beta program however, there are some rules and regulations to be aware of:
* Membership in Beta program is limited to a three month period.
* For identification verification purposes only, we ask that you submit a credit card number. Your card will not, at any time, be charged. The Beta program is absolutely free and the card will be used only to verify your name and reserve your space as an active user.
* If you are still an active user in the Beta program when it ends, you will not be automatically enrolled in the Windows ASP.NET hosting platform. You must re-enroll and verify that Gate.com may, in fact, use your credit card to pay for the account.

Thank you Colda! That does seem like a good idea. Sounds like a decent way to start tinkering with ASP on hosting. I will have to sign up and give it a shot. _________________ I shine |

It sounds like a cheap trick to get customers...
