Vortech Hosting Announces Acquisition of RocketColo

ORLANDO, FL (9/6/05) - Vortech Incorporated, a web hosting provider currently
hosting over 120,000 domain names, announced today that it has acquired
Florida based RocketColo.net, a co-location
and dedicated server provider.

The buyout, which was finalized on Thursday, included the RocketColo.net
network, servers, and all other company assets. RocketColo.net is
currently located in the same datacenter as Vortech Inc, so the
transition is expected to be extremely smooth.

"We are hoping that by purchasing the assets of RocketColo, we will be
able to grow our network and increase our customer base," said Vortech
Inc owner Brad Pugh.

Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, but Pugh says payment
was made up front for the company, and he plans to immediately make
beneficial changes for the company's customers.

"All clients of RocketColo will enjoy additional connectivity at no
additional charge, as we are including them in our network," said Pugh.
Connectivity to Progress Telcom, AT&T, Level(3), Sprint, and Cogent has
been added.

In addition, customers of RocketColo.net will be offered an upgrade to
1000 GB of monthly bandwidth at no additional charge. No downtime is
expected during the transition.

Vortech currently operates a cluster of 9 mail servers, 40 Windows
servers, 20 FreeBSD Systems, 5 MySql, 8 MSsql servers.
