Half a server?

Posted: March 1st, 2009 | Author: admin | Filed under: Technology | No Comments »

As a bit of a techie I decided last month to pick myself up a nice dedicated server. With the intention that if I didn’t get on with it or use all of it I would move all of my sites back to shared hosting.

Well! after a month of use i’m using less than a quarter of the space and bandwidth allocated to me.

So as a way to make the server economically viable I have decided to try offering to go halves with anybody who is interested in having half a server. The server spec is as follows:

  • CPU: Intel Celeron 1.2ghz
  • Ram: 1GB DDR
  • HD: 250GB
  • Bandwidth: Unlimited 100mbps connection

The current operating system is Ubuntu 8.04 with virtualmin gpl installed for a control panel. But i’m happy to change any software installed on the server.

Finally... the price for half the server would be £11.50 yes I did say £11.50! That is exactly half of what I am currently paying.

If your interested or would like more details just leave a comment or email me: samuelbarrett {a} sampbar.com
