I would like to welcome all HostPC customers to TurnKey Internet! Welcome!

If you are not yet aware, as of the beginning of this month, TurnKey Internet is now the proud owner of HostPC, a web hosting provider with a 12-year track record of providing hosting to small and medium-sized businesses. If you are a TurnKey customer, all this acquisition means for you is that we will be expanding the TurnKey brand, growing our company to better serve you with the best possible products and service. If you are a HostPC customer, this acquisition means improved performance across the board along with access to a wide range of new products including VPS servers, dedicated servers, cPanel, 24 x 7 support, R1soft continuous data protection backups, Softaculous auto installer and all of our software-as-a-service solutions for growing your business.

A word from Joseph Mack, former CEO of HostPC:
“HostPC has been a leader in the web hosting industry, and remains the largest hosting provider offering DirectAdmin web hosting control panel. HostPC has trusted its network and server infrastructure to TurnKey Internet for years. TurnKey Internet presented a perfect fit to take HostPC to the next level.”

A word from Adam Wills, President and CEO of TurnKey Internet and HostPC:
“Mr. Mack has done a great job over the years, and we’re thrilled to be able to bring HostPC into the TurnKey Internet family. HostPC web servers are already housed in our New York Datacenter, so clients will not need to make any changes going forward and will enjoy the new performance and features at no additional cost.”

It has been about a week since we started serving HostPC clients, and things have gone quite smoothly. Please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions, suggestions or comments.

What attracted you to the hosting business?

As a programmer by nature I found myself constantly setting up environments on which to develop. Having experience in both Windows and Nix gives me an edge in supporting and
running hosting environments. Being able to bring and constantly refine these skill-sets to a higher level is a challenge that I enjoy.

How did you find TurnKey?

Through a colleague, by happenstance.

What aspect of your job brings out the best in you?

Working in a dynamic and versatile environment allows me to shine as a Jack-of-all-trades.

Do you have any hobbies?

In the Winter I enjoy snowmobiling in the Adirondack’s and during the Summer I like to work in the yard.

Tell me something interesting about yourself…

My left arm is longer than my right arm.

What hardware/software do you use on your home computer?

Windows 7 x64, Ubuntu Server 8.04 LTS
