So, it will be for an Unlimited amount of time? How much does cPanel costs and whats the best network for non-irc servers? (best peering, etc)

[IRCCo Jeff]

thelinuxguy,

Just to clarify, we will require a contract, however, it does not require you to continue using the services for X months and to simply outline right and responsibilities of each party. (I see that you deleted your $125 bid )

Francisco,

Yes, this offer is valid as long as you hold the server. Cpanel is an additional $45/mo.

My personal reccomendation would be to keep the server at Level(3) Richmond, as we're planning to implement a long haul circuit to Equinix IAD to pick up peering at that location and to possibly peer with Virginia Tech (VT links most all of Virginia's universities, many of its K12's, and a handful of government agencies). Also, by staying in Richmond you will receive the server much faster (we will not have to ship it out, since its a physically large server, this could take sometime via Groundtrac if it had to goto DFW, PHX, or LAX).

I'll be out and about after about 5PM, so if anyone has any questions or concernes between 5PM and 11:59PM, be sure to catch me on my mobile, 804-479-0652 (or you can *try* my desk at 804-545-3950).

[Steven]

125. i wasent sure about the agreement.

[IRCCo Jeff]

Note to anyone who may be waiting until last minute, bids that are received after 11:59PM Eastern Daylight Time tonight will be disregarded and the server will be sold to the highest bidder that submitted prior to midnight.

Of course, if this happens we will be more than happy to discuss other options of working with you on a dedicated server package, we just would not be able to sell *this* particular unit (its the last of the Dual Xeon's we have in stock as of now).

$150 is my bid
