question about dedicated servers

Hi, i was just wondering, when you get a dedicated server, do you have to install everything or is it already installed?

You can tell them what you want on your server and they will install it, without charging you a fee. Mind you I'm talking about freeware or opensource. If it's not free and you have the license then you can hand it over and they will install it, without a fee.

they charge a nominal fee if the software you want to install is 3rd party.

When ordering a dedicated, surpass install the o/s, apache, php, mySQL, Cpanel / WHM, etc, basically everything and more you'd expect to see on a server.

So from day 1 your server is completely usable and feature rich
