Hi, Quoting "Greg Smith" <gsmith@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
What I'd love to have is a way to rent a fairly serious piece of dedicated hardware
I'm just stumbling over newservers.com, they provide sort of a "cloud" with an API but that manages real servers (well, blade ones, but not virtualized). Their "fast" variant comes with up to two SAS drives, however, I don't think there's a BBC. Hardware seems to come from Dell, charging by hourly usage... but go read their website yourself.
If anybody has ever tried their systems, I'd like to hear back. I wish such an offering would exist for Europe (guess that's just a matter of time).
