C|Net is Down

[bryant]

With a little message: "CNET is currently down, as we switch to a new server-hosting company and facility. We chose this U.S. holiday weekend, beginning the evening of July 5 and continuing through July 7, to minimize the inconvenience to you. We will be back in service, providing the trusted technology advice and information you count on, starting Monday, July 8. Thank you for your patience."

That weirds me out. A one-weekend move of their entire site, instead of staging it with minimal downtime? Were they rushed into this somehow? Were they colocated at a Worldcom facility?

Or, more likely, was it just cheaper this way? Times change.
