Looking for a host server, basically settled on RCN (Reality Check Network) after doing a bit of research, anyone have any thoughts on them?

This is the service I am leaning toward getting:

http://www.realitychecknetwork.com/colo.html


Bandwidth Price Per Unit Total (+$50 per U)
1 Mbps $150 $200


Is that a good deal for colocation?

$200/mo, $50 is for the rack space
------------

Also wondering if anyone can recommend a good style sheet.

Thanks

Sounds a little expensive...
I think I found somewhere a deal recently which was $150 (or 175?) for 5 Mbps, but no script support (perfect for galleries), and the going rate with most seems to be ~$75-90 per 1 Mbps

Also wondering if anyone can recommend a good style sheet

You mean a CSS?
Write your own! Most editors do it now for you, and there are a few online tools around (don't know URLs - sorry).

Some of my latest hosting bookmarks - I don't know any of these, and am NOT an affiliate of any:
http://www.nebrix.net/services-web-hosting-directadmin-unix.php
250GB = $39.95
http://www.youradulthosting.com/dedicated.html
$275-340 per 10 Mbit
http://www.co-location.com/gigelocations.html
$45 - $75 per Mpbs

...just to give you an idea about pricing...
BEWARE: 90% of hosting companies are RESELLERS! They make profit from other co's cheap prices, and with service you're in a run-around because the resellers don't have their own techs in the network center.

Hi jsand199,

I can highly recommend RCN. I have their 10MBPS dedicated server and will be getting more over the following months.

My advice : never offer to pay the listed price. If you want to know how much I pay for 10mbps, send me a pm and I will let you know. I pay a LOT less than $650.

RCN support is amazing. The servers themselves are top of the range. XNXX actually uses 10 servers from RCN.

Anyway they get a big |thumb from me :)
