Re: [tlug] Linux Web hosting recommendations

Kalen,

Unfortunately we don't offer a complete "barebones" VPS as 
we use the base distro installation, and
aren't $10, but we don't have tiny specs like others
since we prefer to offer VPS that won't cause the less
technical customer to have problems once they get over a few 
domains ;-)

If you compare specs, we are actually cheaper and have phone support 
(some english speakers), and don't use Xen so you get better 
performance with the same spec.

Anyways, would be happy to help where we can, but I guess it depends
on what you are really looking for.

I have been using vr.org for more than a year and I like it. I run Gentoo, but they have most anything you'll need in terms of OS:

$50/month these days is a lot! Try with $10.

It is a fully virtualised environment, it is up to you to install whatever (Linux) you want.
