This week Read/WriteWeb upgraded its server and also moved to Movable Type 4. The upgrade process resulted in issues with commenting yesterday and the first half of today. So my apologies to anyone who left a comment over the past couple of days for the bad user experience. Commenting is now back working - and what's more it is much faster than previously on this site.
The server upgrade (on Media Temple) and move to Movable Type 4 (Six Apart) are part of a major overhaul to Read/WriteWeb. We also have a re-design in the works.

So why is it tech sites pay MediaTemple exorbanant prices for average hosting plans? Some of their prices are outrageous. You could pay an enterprise-grade managed hosting company like Rackspace the same and get the same or more support and tons more on the hardware side. Their $750/mo nitro servers are ~$250/mo of hardware and bandwidth at most at other data centers...
Do they knock down the pricing for sites like this just for the "we're cool" advertising?
