Managed dedicated hosting companies, what to choose?

[cordinator]

Hi members,
I recently went through this forum and found it really interesting and informative.
I am interested to know about the 3 Managed Dedicated Web Hosting cos., namely Rackspace, Datapipe and Webreseller. It would be nice, if any one of you out there could provide me information on these companies regarding their prices, data backup and etc.

I know you would guide your new member on the block!

Take care from the,

If you want dedicated, you ought as well save the money by purchasing a decent PC with a net card and router.

You will spend less money....believe me.

I did this myself years ago, now I have expanded into a web hosting firm, myself......who would've known?

Hi, ColdZero

Can you show us what hardware and softwear you use ?
And a step-to-step to set up your own delicated server ?
It is very interesting.
thank you.
