Servers just got cheaper...
 

Seen this on Hacker News.

6 core i7 cpu, 6 TB disk, 10 TB BW (after restricted to 10Mbit) and 64 GB RAM.

109 euros a month.

Even beats kimsufi.

Hardware has never been an issue ...

If you burn enough bandwidth, most of us hosts will even give you the hardware for FREE!!

The level of support you get -- and the knowledge of the staff -- should be your first concern when searching for a server - not how many cores it has ... or how many gigahertz ... or megabytes ... or grapple gromets ... or philbert flanges ....

All of this is a rather moot point if your server is offline :Oh crap

Yes but that is germany host and porn is partially banned there so...

i paid something like $900 for 40 gigs of bandwidth back in 1998

I wouldn't call an entry page a partial ban.

No doubt. If you haven't got a clue what your doing with the software then you need a managed host.

Oh and it's 19% cheaper if you live outside of the EU.

99.9% uptime since 2010 http://www.webhostingstuff.com/uptime/Hetznerde.html
