Speaking in favor of MV: They've done really well by us. Jess has been a 
customer of theirs since she was 13 and got tired of the AOL her parents 
bought for her, and they've been wonderful about providing everything we 
could ask for - static IP, multiple IPs, great support, etc. They're a 
small shop (from what I've seen, although I don't know a lot about them) 
and seem really friendly about anything you come to them with. 

It's a lot like comparing a big grocery store to the corner store - MV 
is the friendly guy behind the counter at the corner store that you can 
always depend on.
