[olug] Basic cheap local hosting?

[Dan Staehr]

I use GoWestHosting, while they are not local, I use them for nearly all 
of the web sites I maintain. Its a small company with servers in Denver. 
I work with another web developer who got me set up with reseller 
accounts, and have at least one WordPress account.
