Where do YOU guys buy your RaQ4's?
What do you pay for them?

When you colocate them, we do you colocate them?
Preferrably something like Rackshack, lotsa BW for lessa $$

Don't need support, as long as my RaQ is plugged in :)
Then I can do everything myself :)

I bought one there.... arrived within a week - all the way to canada. They give you a tracking number so you can watch it every step of the way.

price was $1650 for Raq4r, 2x20gig HD, 256 ram. $75 for shipping to Canada.

Service was great.... they offer a lot of security updates and patches (at an additional cost) if you don't know much about linux and installing that stuff yourself.

I hooked mine up here the day I got it and applied all the patches from Cobalt and it's been running 24/7 since then.

The system has been running for 14 days, 3 hours, and 16 minutes.
