Yea, there seems to be some confusion about relative pricing. I think the issue is bandwidth. You pay a set amount at Slicehost and a variable amount (depending on usage) at Rackspace. My main concern is the work involved in doing the migration. I don't have time to get everything done as it is and now I have to move a staging server and a production server...

Thanks,

Ken

A rackspace rep replied to the same concerns you shared:

the prices are similar, but there might be some effect. [email protected] and we can find out more about what effect it'll have.

Not sure that answers your question tho.

Hi All,

I'm not sure how many of you use Slicehost like I do but I received an email this morning informing me that they are going to "convert current Slicehost accounts to Rackspace Cloud Servers accounts over the next year". In other words, they're killing off Slicehost. In my opinion, Slicehost has been just great (been a customer for at least 4 years, I think) and from everything I hear Rackspace is going to me more expensive. Plus I get to do a migration instead of doing actual productive work.

Anyway, just thought I'd pass this along...

Thanks, Ken
