Hmmm... let me look at ServerPronto's site...

- Intel Pentium 4, 3 GHz (as opposed to a Quad Core Pentium)
- 1 GB RAM (Half as much)
- 160 GB HDD (as opposed to 30 GB data space)
- 800 GB Traffic Bandwidth (only 200 GB with KAVPS, but still enough)
- Only 6 email support tickets per month ($15 each for extra!)
- 6 reboots ($29 each for extra!)
- IP's - 4 (1 with KAVPS, but enough)
- Setup ($99) ($0 with KAVPS)
- Windows 2003 Server - $26 per month (incl with KAVPS)
- MSSQL 2005 Standard - $99 per month (incl with KAVPS)
- Plesk for 100 Domains - $40 per month (incl with KAVPS)

So, basically, it looks like Server Pronto would cost me
$266 per month with only 6 email support tickets included,
+ $1300 for CF 8 (let's say about $55 per month before upgrading in 2 years),
so...

- $321 per month for a dedicated server with Server Pronto
- $100 per month for VPS with KAVPS with unlimited support (phone and email)

Even with the extras, as long as a VPS suffices (which it should), it seems
the better route would be KAVPS, for me.

Am I looking at this correctly?
