The "static IP only" is $25 setup and $10/mo, while the full setup for a
domain is $50 setup and $10/mo. That's all the DNS, MX, etc. plus either
a) a static IP and pointing everything to you, or b) they host it on their
servers. Same price either way...
I didn't know much about it either when I started, but GCI was willing to
help me out a bit (mainly with the DNS entries and such that I needed to
*properly* register the site), plus the Debian installs worked quite well.
The Sendmail and Apache setups worked nicely :-)
