Ok thanks

I haven't really done anything in CE apart from follow some basic tutorials about checking for and creating a database, and then running some sql. It seemed like it would be a right pain to swap from a big DB full of stored procedures and functions to CE.

I thought the limit of the free SQL DB was 2gb for some reason not 10GB but that is even better. Looks like a Rackspace cloud server is the way to go unless anyone has any better recommendations.

I am in the UK and have a LINUX box in Texas with them and the good thing is the exchange rate as even though the dollar $ amount is going up each month the actual £ price has gone down.

If anyone knows of any better cloud VM hosting companies that would be perfect for running just an SQL DB and an SQL windows service then please let me know.

Thanks
