So I have a VPS that is insanely cheap from ChicagoVPS. So far it is running our Mumble and FastDL servers. In 3 months we have had 2 outages that have lasted 2-5 minutes. This is a 99.99 uptime which is about what everyone else guarantees. This is acceptable due to the price. These specs are unmatched by any other provider. Nowhere will you get 2GB of dedicated memory for under $20.

I am so impressed with their quickness to resolve the issues that I have supported their expansion to New York by ordering another VPS in Buffalo. I definitely recommend them if anyone is looking to mess around with Linux and want significant resources to do so. Plus free 25 slot Mohawkvoice server (Meh).
