You can set them up for free, if you wish!
You might get a better response to this if you put it in another part of the forum - this is the Welcome section. Oh, and welcome to Hexus! Jonny

If you are in halls at Uni, you may have an ethernet port in your room, it which case it would be possible to setup a forum site running on your own PC, at no additional cost. (Though the university firewall will probably prevent it been accessed outside the university). |
