I think it'll be able to handle more than 100-150 accounts, but it looks great.

I have no idea where you think your going to make money with those prices unless you oversell and overload the server. You have to take in the consideration of the support, hardware, bandwidth, and YOUR time when considering pricing/plans.

with one or two servers i will not make any money , but what about +10 servers

do you mean 10GB is too much ?

Depends, I am currently on shared hosting and I consume about 40G space and 2500Gb bw/month :).
I was the biggest reason that prevented me to start shared hosting business :)

Even if they didnt, he would still be overselling then. Also, some users ARE going to use that amount.

Unless you have a great marketing plan or niche, plus the funds to back that up, its going to take you a while to fill those 10 servers. Also, plus you unless you plan very carefully, your support costs will most likely be a lot higher than your thinking right now as well.
