Yah, but then you're time slicing a fragment of a box, often with
restrictions on what you can do with it e.g. you get the 1.4.2 JVM because
that's what the server has on it, you get the standard package list and
can't install more, etc.
A virtual server may well work for a lot of applications, but in my
experience it's not a good platform to deploy a complex web application on
unless you're *very* sure beforehand that the server template has all the
packages and permissions you're going to need.
If you get your own box, you have control and can put whatever JVM,
.jars, .rpms, whatever on it you want.
