Would it sell though :confused:

Because i cannot compete with offers such as

$110 a month

Celeron 1.3GHZ
512MB RAM
60GB HD
400GB Data-transfer
Ensim 3.1
Red hat 7.2

Extra data-transfer £2.50 / $3 per GB overcharge
or
£20 / $25 per 5GB block

It costs more to prepurchuse the bandwidth? Shouldnt it be cheaper.. or what would be the point of prepaying for it when you can just pay the overage charge since it will be less..
