I'm really puzzled by this. A single dedicated large .NET box (16GB RAM and 6 Core Processor, 1TB raid, etc.) runs $150 a month. When I was looking at PaaS, Heroku came in more than five times that much for similar capability. $1,000 a month gets me SIX of these dedicated boxes that can be tied together as needed.
Why was your setup so much more for dedicated that you could _save_ that much, much less why you would be spending that much in the first place?
