What option did you take with them? I was looking to run SMTP/IMAP/POP3
along with Apache, PHP, Perl, PostgreSQL and MySQL. Also a few cron jobs
- although my home servers on the end of the ADSL line would do most of
the processor intensive stuff.

I was thinking of taking the 2nd option for £27 a month. The cheapest
option doesn't seem to offer enough memory or disk space. I would of
course be using Gentoo if I were to go ahead.

You only really have to commit for 3 months too, which doesn't seem too
bad.

Thanks,

Marcus
