I use a small ISP in Cookeville to co-locate my equipment. They charge $79.00 per month for co-location charges. It is a no-frills setup, so you should provide your own UPS as they do not have power generators. They have been in business since 1995 and I don't see them going away any time soon. I wouldn't recommend putting a machine that is going to stream a lot data, but something to do a reasonable amount of ecommerce/data serving should ok for their bandwidth ( around 6Mbps with about 25 hosted servers and 300/400 dialup lines in the facility where the server would be co-located).
If you, or anyone, contact them, please mention that I sent you.
