Hi, thanks for the replys. Im looking at the follow at a local ISP..
http://www.paradigmsolutions.co.za/windowsVPS.asp I would go for a one of those.. Maybe i should do one of the linux options.. http://www.paradigmsolutions.co.za/windowsVPS.asp but maybe i should do the linux ones at http://www.paradigmsolutions.co.za/linuxVPS.asp I would then chose the Linux VPS 2 it has a gig of RAM, and have a choice of 5 different Linux Distros. Would go CentOS or Ubuntu as they the only ones i have ever used. Would that be ok?
