I’m considering either buying a base MediaTemple Dedicated Virtual or the base Joyent accelerator, since they’re both pretty much the same size in RAM I was wondering if you guys had any opinions or experiences with the two. If you know of any other **similar** hosts please let me know. (That’s to any noobs out there who were thinking about posting some unknown company that will go out of business in 6 months.) I’ve been considering SliceHost, but it’s a bit too much high-maintenance.
