Cheap slice from them is 6.95/mo if you buy a year.. 7.95/mo otherwise.. 64mb ram, 1.5gb storage, and 100GB per month bandwidth.. I host 2 wordpress blogs, 4 other websites and vpn server and it runs like a top..using nginx, mysql, php-fastcgi, openvpn and sshd. of course they have more extensive services as well.. http://vpslink.com/xen-vps/ A- --- Aaron Baer [email protected] http://www.slyness.org/ _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
