Getting an extra 512 MB of RAM or 1 GB of RAM at the same price is pretty meaningless to me

I wouldn't mind an extra gig of RAM and a pony

The second statement highlighted is why I said you should try linode for a day. To clarify what I meant is you should try linode out (not as a production server) but to see if you can use it the same for that extra gig of ram for the same cost or less with minimal effort.

I really wasn't trying to say it would save you money in the end or that it would help sell software as you seem to think.

Edit: and btw your Buy Now button is still really hard to see as I commented before

I think you might be missing the point here. If it does not in fact save significant money or help sell software--he's not interested.

I have a (currently underused) slicehost account. In my opinion these guys have historically been known for awesome customer service. They need to continue to do that, and not try to compete on price. I am not optimistic about their ability to deliver amazing service after the Rackspace acquisition, though.


Linode has good customer service too.
