I am wondering why Andymark didn't purchase 3 months of hosting from a place like Amazon. They charge by usage, and there wouldn't be that much of an issue (I'm sure at any given moment, there are more than 3,000 users on Amazon).

Kudos to Andy and crew for trying to get it right though. It's better for them to cancel and reschedule then for a select few people getting in. I'm looking forward to using the system when rescheduled.
