Wow, a lot cheaper than Slicehost now. $20/month gets you 256 MB on Slicehost and 512 MB on Linode.

  $15.20/month gets you 512MB on fivebean.com. I've been quite happy with them so far.

    And $12 gets you 512MB on http://prgmr.com/ http://prgmr.com/.

      The transfer is a bit poor on prgmr though. $20 gets you 160GiB vs 200 on Linode. Also overage charges on Linode are pretty cheap (half what they are on slicehost). Depends if you need ram/disk/transfer though.

      The point is Linode has better service, e.g. 24x7 IRC, responsive ticket system, powerful admin interface.

        This is true; But good support is a difficult (and thus expensive) problem; I'm providing a alternative where if you are willing to have slower ticket resolution, you get a discount.

    Interesting. Lots of disk space and bandwidth, too. Looks like their acceptable use policy is a bit strict and baroque, tough. I'm also guessing the admin interface doesn't give nearly as much control as linode's (no other VPS providers I'm familiar with do).

      deleted: not everything is about me. perhaps I ought to pay more attention?

        Double check the thread nesting. My statements are regarding fivebean, not prgmr.
