looking for: ssh hosting

[Jayson Smith]

Hi,

     Coming in late to this thread, but I've been very satisfied with 
Openhosting.com. The minimum commit rate is $19.95 per month. They charge 
for resources actually used, with a minimum commit per month. The more you 
commit to per month, the better prices you get. However, if you overcommit, 
you run the risk of spending more money than you save, since they're always 
going to charge the commit rate, even if you don't use that much. I've only 
ever gone over my commit once, and that was when I was uploading everything 
and in general getting things set up. Even then, I only went over by twenty 
cents.
     With this service, you get your own virtual private server, with its 
own IP address. Needless to say, this means SSH is enabled, and you don't 
have to ask for ports to be open. You can run pretty much anything you want, 
so long as it doesn't violate their acceptable use policy. The usual 
compilers are also included, of course.
     For more info or to sign up, visit www.openhosting.com. There's a 
one-time $15 setup fee, but that can actually be effectively waved if you 
use my referral code which is XJAY861
     Put that in the promo code box when signing up, and you'll get a $15 
credit immediately, then when you have spent $60, I'll receive a $15 credit.
Jayson
