Not as low-end as those low-end virtual servers, but dedicated servers under $30/month are also hard to come by but can be a good solution if you need consistent performance on a budget (whereas on a VPS your performance pretty much depends on how busy your neighbours are). $24.95/month from CoreNetworks (+$69 setup fee) gets you the following dedicated server:
- 2.6Ghz Celeron D
- 512MB RAM
- 80GB storage
- 1,000GB or 3Mbps unmetred transfer
- Remote power + remote KVM
- Various Linux/BSD and Windows distributions.
Their website is in a Detroit DC so I assume their dedicated servers are too. Update: CoreNetworks actually has a small DC at East Lansing, Michigan. Well, close enough.

I have a server with them for a bit less than a year now and i am still amazed:
hardware is faster than one might think, network is quite stable, traffic stats, remote reboot, good support…
No wonder the $24.95 server is usually sold out ;)
Thanks for the info. You really can’t fault $24.95 for a dedicated server, can you? :)
I actually use to use these guys. Their customer service is awesome. One month things just went bad with the personal bills, and they delayed the payment without cutting off anything, it was great.
