Another host that's similar to slicehost is http://www.linode.com . Both cost 20$ a month, but you seem to get more bang per buck with linode (360mb vs 256mb of ram, 16GB vs 10Gb of storage, etc...).
That said, I haven't personally tried linode, so I'm not sure how good the service is. -Xavi On Mon, Jun 15, 2009 at 9:50 AM, Tim Nelson<tnell...@gmail.com> wrote: > You might want to also look into Mosso's Cloud Servers.
