PRICES IN THREAD OR EAT SHIT AND DIE
Is the pricing recurring? Also does it apply to future uprgades?
The pricing is recurring for as long as you keep the server -- It will not apply toward future upgrades.
Reviews - are these guys worth a position on the league table?

@NickMNXio - Care to explain when you say 50% off
for the life of the server!
Also some location / DC details would be nice... CHI I guess ?
These prices will be going away after BF.. but if you spin up a server under these pricing terms, it will remain at these prices every month.
Yes, Mt Prospect IL USA (Chi region).

My notes so far:
Cons
Pros
time yum update
for 424 actions (including that awfully slow microcode update)->real 4m10.110s, user 2m51.786s, sys 0m44.845s
- pretty decent for the specs/price~13MB/s from WSI

,~18MB/s from DO NYC1
Conclusion
If it had snapshots and with the BF pricing, it would definitely make sense for me to replace my usage of Wable (snapshots) and Scaleway (vfm).
Argh, I stopped when I found that they do not have PayPal. Too bad.
Thanks for the feedback all. FYI Snapshots and PP are planned..
Signed up because I figured I could play with Solaris again for $2.50/mo, and with full control of my reverse ptr, well- I'm hooked already.
I was sitting on the fence about getting a lower-to-second lower FreeBSD 10 box because I absolutely love the responsiveness of this, and the incredibly simple management, but it looks like they're back to normal prices. It's not even 9 pacific yet! Darn it!
Dollar cost average, and it's still a steal
Thanks, Nick-
Well, I was thinking of FBSD mostly as a toy now that I've decided that I can live in the SmartOS container restrictions. Other than SMF sucking my soul dry- I.. I like this. It (mostly) does what I want it to! Of course, now I wish had grabbed a Beastie toy before making dinner!
Do you offer any whitelabeling? I've been touting your services to folks who have been around since ASN were 4 numbers, and wouldn't mind getting a cheaper fix for my own needs.
Is IPv6 available?
I asked this same question on the support community a couple days ago. It was the first and only post.
IPv6 is not currently available.. it is an active development item, and will be available soon.

We don't offer any white labeling But we do appreciate the kinds words!
