This location is still my #1: 200 days of uptime. It's not really cheap, but the performance is really incredible. Great job, Bernhard! It's running my websites (blogs & wikis) mainly and a few other smaller things, that only KVM can do.
After a bad start for the node's hardware it's running brilliant now. I use it for file delivery for my websites and for sharing files with friends. Most "bang for the buck" I have seen so far!
I have this for an irc client and as a personal proxy and gateway. I can remember the ip (only 5 digits) so I wouldn't need any dns to connect to it. Basically, the ip is my only reason I love it so much, but it also has a good uptime (157 days) and runs smooth.
HM: INIZ (NYC) -> wow, that's incredibly cheap concerning the location, Torqhost, Low End Spirit
