MR> vpses suck. I tried them for years. it's hard to find a good provider
MR> and the ones i've seen bbs people use are a rip off.
MR> I prefer a dedicated server. i use ovh.
So have I and like you, i don't like them for one reason or another.

I'm rocking 2 Dell PowerEdge R610's running 17 VM's w/o a burp.
(Of course, now I may have jinxd it by typing that...)

My ISP is Glo Fiber. I'm getting 1.2Gb/s both ways.

I live in Fayette County, Ohio and actually have had to shut everything down
for 4 hours, because of the massive thunderstorms we've had the past 3 days
with yesterday, being the most severe.

At last count before the power down, they were both at ~1,215.77 days of uptime.

Not too shabby... I like to have control of what I need, when I need it.
