So figure actual cost roughly £78 or $120 for the cheapest one. It turns me away when companies say it's unlimited, then at the bottom of the page say what the real limit is, and say it's free, but it's really $30 / month. That's lying and I tend not to do business with people who lie to me.
I go with the EG servers - http://www.ovh.com/fr/serveurs_dedies/eg_best_of.xml
and I see there is a difference here as these are 200Mbs premium, whereas the .ie extension servers are limited to 20TB/mo (60mbs). With the EG servers, the kvm IS free...

and the geo-localised IPs are one-off fees, which makes them *damn* cheap.
100GB backup space to boot too.

I love their cloud offerings though - very cheap and very reliable for non-processor intensive operations. nginx works beautifully on them.

You can't beat a quad dual core w/ 24GB ram and 2xTB drives for ~150/mo.

I think though, the best offerings are on their french pages, so it helps to be in France....
