oh oh...let me clarify a bit more on the forum thing 
the forum very well could remain on the host it is on right now as I have pre-paid powweb for a 2 year contract there already...did that when I renewed last time. The 5g a day bandwidth there has been ample and so far (knock on wood) I have been very fortunate in my dealings with them, unlike some others.
Their tech support has been right on the ball with one exception and that was when the phpBB worm got loose in their systems wreaking havoc so very understandable as to why it took then a day to respond. But other then that I have had no complaints with them thus far in regard to hosting the forums and webring etc. So very likely that those parts of my service will remain on the powweb server. The dedicated server would simply be a file server for uploading and downloading of files and would likely host a few basic html pages etc such like that. I would be using a php and mysql file handler though so would still need that kind of programming ability etc too though.
Thanx very much for the replies and offers I greatly appreciate the time taken to share your knowledge with me on these things and would still be very happy to entertain other offers/options etc if anyone has some. Like I said June 1rst will be the earliest I am able to do this so lots of time still.
