I was thinking that it was great just to find someone these days that would accept a one-off server and that should be enough to be thankful for!
Especially true with providers like SoftLayer which can turn up a fully dedicated server to spec at any of several locations within a few hours. No hardware to manage or worrying about getting direct access at all. They even give you the ability to cycle the outlet(s) the server is plugged into if needed. Unless there is some really specialized hardware, location-specific or regulatory need, I couldn't imagine a desire to deal with putting my own single box at a co-lo anymore. Of course, since you're leasing the box you pay a premium over a pure bare-bones co-lo, but it vastly simplifies things. -Justin Scott
