Dedicated Server for only $85/month!
Hostnix now offers FreeBSD virtual dedicated servers for only $85/mo! For a limited time there is no setup fee! We can have your server setup in 2 hours or less!
We have 3 OC-12 links from 3 different providers -- Genuity, Sprint and XO.
Each server is on a high-power mainframe class system with at least 4 processors and at least 4gb of memory.
Your VDS comes with 2GB disk storage, 1 IP, full root access, a whopping 40GB of bandwidth and loads of other stuff I probably forgot to mention!
This offer is so new it isn't even on our website yet, you must email info@hostnix.com for details!
If interested please contact over email, no replies will be made to posts here!Last edited by Hostnix; 08-30-2002 at 11:34 AM.

I agree, I think this should go in shared hosting offers because you do share the server with other people.

While it is on server w/ other instances it is still it's own dedicated server for whomever has the account, is it not?
Is there a definition for what a dedicated server is? ... and just because it's a virtual dedicated server it isn't a dedicated server at all?.:. Hostnix .:.

...and just to ellaborte....
Yes, I know the definition of a "Dedicated Server" per se, my point was simply just because it's a "Virtual Dedicated Server" does that mean it's excluded from the standard defination of "Dedicated Server". In other words, does it not fit into the industry standard definition of "Dedicated Server" because it contains the word "Virtual"?.:. Hostnix .:.

Anyway, I apologize for interrupting the thread. I just realized this is the advertising forum.

I think the question of whether VPS or VDS belongs in dedicated or shared offer forum is debatable. However, the title is truly misleading. When you say dedicated server, people expect to see "real" dedicated server, not "virtual" or "private" dedicated server. Whether this belongs in the shared offer forum is one thing, but it for sure should have included VDS or VPS in the subject line.

In the same way a virtual dedidcated server, isnt really dedicated.
Virtual means it simulates something without actually being what it simulates.
