Questions before I sign up
Ok I have a couple proxy sites that I want to host and I've been considering buying a VPS or dedicated server and Surpass seems to have some decent deals.
On the VPS, where can I view the details for the plans, the more details link is broken? Also I've always used cPanel and if I got a dedicated server I'm not going to put up the extra $30 for cPanel so how would I manage the my sites that I would have hosted and the server (e-mails, FTP, password, mysql, ect.)? |

Yes.. sir! (I hope.)
 Dedicated servers require the licensing fee only. I must tell you though, we prefer proxy sites to be on dedicated. Proxy sites get very, very intensive (as I am sure you know) and VPS is a highly controlled environment. Those sites need to be able to burst in usage as much as possible.

There's a reason behind it. We would not raise a price without one. You'll see that the RAM has changed as well.
The new VPS.1 will have 512 MB RAM as opposed to 256, due to obvious constraints with VPS.1 since we first launched VPS services. There were repeated failures with the VPS.1 plan and inconsistent stability which will be solved with the added RAM.
