Thank you. That looks pretty good. Do you use their services often and have
you had any problems with the system not being available when you wanted it?

How is the response time and performance? I never used deathrow so I have no
feeling for how fast their Alpha was or what that would mean in practice. In
other words are those shells practical for a serious coding session or does
the performance slow you down and make you start pulling your hair out etc.
