What drjones said, but if you are looking for a cheaper VPS provider, give VPSLink a try. They've currently got a special until August 7th (see: http://forums.vpslink.com/showthread...=8592#post8592) which allows you to get 30% off any plan, making their cheapest plan $5.57 per month for 64 MB RAM, 2 GB disk space and 100 GB bandwidth. Mind you, you'll have to do a bit of optimising to get a server running well on 64 MB of RAM.
