Hi there,

I own a small hosting company (7 dedicated servers and about 60 shared hosting accounts and 5 Xen VPSs)

I am about to buy another hosting company located in the UK with the same amount of client.

What are the checks / questions that I should ask before the buy out so I know its not a scam. ( i am in the us)
