Maybe you could offer clusters (small at first, 3-4 servers)
Solaris, maybe Suse?
Lower spec computers (Pentium 3 and such) that would be very affordable.

LOL on that page for the Sun Fire V20z servers i noticed it said "Surpasses the competition in both performance and price/performance" just like some one else here, I think they are copying your style of bussiness

Excellent choice. Right now, I'm managing a rack of 32 of those things, plus setting up another one for a different project. Those thing rock.

Ok How many people would switch to dedi

if we offer these specs special...


AMD Sempron
512mb Ram
Dual 80 gig HD /w backups
cpanel/whm
1,200 gigs bandwidth
4 ip's
100% managed server of course we will treat like our own
We will migrate everything for you.

$0 setup fee
$99/month

Remember this includes the cpanel license and its a managed server!!


If we get 10 people to order I think we will do this..
