As you might have heard, BlueVM has moved their KVM locations into Buffalo and put them on significantly larger nodes.
I picked up a KVM3 (now their new KVM2 plan) back during their Labor Day special and got it specifically because it was on the Best Coast. Now that it's in NY, I don't have much of a use for it -- instead of dropping it I'm hoping someone will take it over.
It renews at $40/yr on Sep. 4. I'd like to get a whole $15 just to cover the roughly five months left. PM if you're interested.
The specifics:
- 512MB RAM
- 25GB disk
- 1TB BW
- KVM in Buffalo, NY.
The requisite benchmarks:
