You should *always* buy more than you need, because the tacked-on price-per-gigabyte rates past your limit that most hosting companies charge are sick.
Notice how Nexpoint is only giving me 2 days to upgrade, knowing that's not nearly enough time to get set up somewhere else. There will thus be an ugly interim period between two hosts.
Also, no Deadlyman, you will not need to reregister - this forum is on a MySQL database, and I can take a database dump and shove it to a new host - users, posts, layouts, skins, and all. In theory. :) My experience is with Oracle databases, however, so it'll be a learning experience for me. The impact you'll see as an end user is that you probably won't be able to post anything for 2 to 3 days as the domain transfers over, depending on when your ISP picks up the new DNS pointer.
