Anyone want a free coupon for 50% off any Network Solutions web hosting package?

Ok, I've got three "Friends of the Firm" offers I need to pass out.
The top of the coupon here explains the prices of the three package
types and what you get for them:

Basically it's a half-off coupon, single use, for one year of hosting.
It only applies to web hosting packages, so, for example, registering a
new domain would be full price, even if its a part of the same order.
There's a choice of whether you want the site hosted on Unix or
Windows, the latter only really being useful if you want to use ASP
pages.

Each hosting package provides some site building tools including
Network Solution's Image Cafe (think online PowerPoint for web sites
with tons of templates that even someone who knows nothing of HTML can
use to set up a quick site in a few minutes.) Obviously you can also
upload your site through FTP or the web-based FileManager. And if you
like FrontPage, there's the FrontPage Server Extensions, which is a
"server-side application that lets users of Microsoft's FrontPage web
site creation tool to easily deploy pre-package features, such as a hit
counter and guest book, for their web site." I don't have FrontPage
so I haven't tried that feature, but ImageCafe is pretty easy to use.
I used it with a template to quickly create a basic site which I then
took it down because I don't really need my own web site.

If it's needed, Network Solutions' Customer Support has been awarded
the JD Power and Associates certification, which is supposed to be
pretty good.

Anyway, if anyone thinks they may be interested, send me an email to
yzilbergleyt@yahoo.com or simply reply to this topic. I'll email the
full coupon and never even pressure you to use it (though it expires 3
months after I register that it's been issued.) I'd need 4 pieces of
info from you though:

1. Your name
2. Company Name (if any)
3. Business type (if any)
4. Which specific hosting package you think you may order

It would also be nice to know how likely you think it is that you'll
use the coupon.

I give you my word that your email address will not leave my inbox, and
I'll never contact you after emailing the coupon unless you contact me
first with some questions.

Network Solution sucks. Why would you host with them?

Because I work form them? :)
I'm not here to pass any judgement, and in any case I'm not experienced
with hosting so I can't make comparisons regarding the competition.
You can probably tell I'm not exactly a trained salesman. I just have
some coupons for anyone who wants one - they can do their own research
regarding what's best for them.

NS isn't a spammer. I'm the one who decided to post here, and I'm not
anything close to being related to their marketing or sales departments.

Again, they're not a spammer, and the first coupon went to a friend of
mine. He said he'd "consider" it, as long as I don't give NS his
contact details. That's good enough for me.

In any case, since I realize now how my topic post can be seen as spam,
I have just removed it from google groups archive at least.
