 difference between having a .com account and having a fully-featured
 hosting account with the stand-alone application installed. In my opinion
 it would further the confusion that many people have distinguishing
 between .com and .org.

 I am more on the technical side of things and copy is definitely not my
 forte but I think Aaron's recommendation makes sense. If we want to
 distinguish .com as something different than other hosting companies, the
 copy has to reflect it. Not sure how the marketing people of .com want to
 present the product now but probably mentioning it as a SAAS solution
 compared to stand-alone app suitable for normal fully-featured hosting
 accounts? On the other hand if the idea is to put it on part with the
 "normal" hosts, it would make much more sense to be part of the group of
 recommended companies.
