[SGVLUG] recommend a hosting provider

[Miguel Hernandez]

I love that idea, Eric! I've gone to an event & have done some reading but
have never played with EC2 but I think about it when I'm doing something on
my host & wonder what it'd be like to complete the same task using AWS.

I haven't done any SQL performance testing since using DH, James. My setup
runs just fine but I don't have a large enough data set to perform an
appropriate test. I'm pretty sure a few of the others who use dreamhost here
do, though. :)
