Your posts are highly contradicting. First you say you know that certain hosts can offer what they're advertising, and then you say you agree they probably aren't legit. Which is it?

If you honestly believe that HostGator (for example) can offer and fulfill the 600GB disk space they're selling within their packages, then my post was lost on you. It's physically impossible to allow users to use that much space, and for such a minimal cost. Crunch the numbers yourself - they don't add up. If you're convinced otherwise, then please show me a 600GB disk space HostGator account.

As for my statistics. Well I suppose around 13 years of first hand experience working for web hosts that oversell doesn't count for much?
