However I don't know how much bandwidth either would take up - it may not be too much.
Also, I (and Mark) had pictured it differently (or so I presume - we may have the same name but that doesn't mean I can speak for Mark) - one page for everybody rather than multiple pages being based on accept languages.
Host language is a better idea, I think, and we really should look into it because many peoples' computers are set with, say, English as the accept language but would prefer to see the message in, say, Chinese.

This is so obviously not true. We're talking about a small set of static HTML pages here. For 100 languages, that's 100 pages. Most people will look at no more than 2 of them. Millions of websites have more pages than that, visitors that surf through them more, and run from a single server without a performance problem.
