I am looking for an alternative location or solution for my personal
mail/web server.   I currently have a 1U Linux box at a colo which
acts as my mail server and hosts a couple of low volume web sites for
friends. Traffic for this system is extremely light.

Basically, I'm looking for a Linux box on the net that:
* is fairly inexpensive
* I have full control over
* has some expectation of "uptime", e.g. Better than "home ISP" levels.

The two alternatives I am currently looking at are:
Slice Host, http://www.slicehost.com/. For $20+ per month they will
provide a dedicated XEN domain.

Moving the 1U to my home and upgrading my net connection to some form
of, so called, "business class" service.

My questions for the group are:
1) Does anyone have any experiences with Slice host they would care to share?
2) Any recommendations for an inexpensive,  local (Boston area) colo
that would host a single 1U system?
3) Any recommendations for a dedicated host provider?
