    When I find a service provider that really goes above and beyond to provide
    an excellent quality product I feel the need to share my new find. In this case it is server4you.com and server4you.net. The first is USA-based while
    the second is European-based. They offer entry-level systems from $9 USD per month offering the following specs: 200G HDD, 4G RAM, 100Mbit bidirectional, and 2 V-Cores. That's for $9 American dolalrs per month. Thats like eating out for dinner at a fast food joint. They offer both V-Servers and Dedicated servers. They have the best price in town and their operation is very customer-friendly. There is also an option for the V-Servers to be upgraded seamlessly, so you could buy the $9 V-Server and find that eventually you
    need a better system... well not to fret, they can upgrade your old server to
    a new V-Server without losing any of your files, just a few clicks and there you go. All the servers that they offer are at least 100 Mbit bi-directional without bandwidth metering, and up to a gigabit internet traffic pipe for under $80/month.

    As for the rest of the system I'd recommend RealVNC for a remote GUI interactive experience, ESET NOD32 Antivirus For LINUX, and CrushFTP for file transfer. I've personally found that LXDE is a great at
    not consuming bandwidth and having a low cpu processor consumption which you can install by doing a "apt-get install lxde" . This works really well. However be sure to do an install of "lxde" and not "lubuntu-desktop" as it messes things up.

    This Internet server company allows you to pay via credit card or via PayPal, and the contracts are per month, not per year. This is the best there is, which is why I'm sharing it with you. If you have any great finds please let me know so I can check it out too. BTW, just in case you are stuck for some reason into using Windows as an operating system they have Windows Servers available as well. I prefer Linux.

    Best regards,
    warmfuzzy

    I second LXDE, it does a great job of providing a little bit of
    eye-candy while keeping demands low. I ran Lubuntu on single-core
    laptops running LXDE and OpenBox, and it ran in less than 200 MB of
    RAM at idle.


    ... How does this work, is there an orientation?
