busbr

Because this deserves its own thread.

Francisco

Thanks

I'll get some proper offer threads up in a bit.

I'm interested in Slice 1024 but with 2TB bandwidth (or at least 1.5GB) and some discount applied against the standard price of $3.50

Hope to see your offer thread soon.

@francisco Whats the likely hood that they get sold out before you manage to make a thread, You now it's like feeding candy to a baby with your slices

The offer will be what's on the site.

The bandwidth is actually unmetered now, I just need to make some minor changes to the site.

Enjoy!

BuyVM don't do offers. EVER.

Is the Slice something like Cloud or just a name for a VPS plan?

A name for a VPS plan with KVM virt & dedicated CPU.

No discounts when paid yearly?

It's cheap enough as is... Stop being greedy.

Francisco

Not at this time. Down the road (Christmas, etc) we might do some 'yearly discount' deals where we'll give 2 months free.

As @trewq said, we felt the prices were good enough that they didn't need a yearly discount too.

I'd love both locations but I'm too lazy to set them up

Catched up one in Luxembourg. Let's see when it is ready.

This particular Friday is getting quite expensive. Damn.

I have troubles accessing https://manage.buyvm.net

Seems to be down.

It's cleared up sorry about that.

@Francisco seems weird there is no newer Ubuntu and Debian as install options. Any reason for that ? I know I can use iso but for quick test seems too much to do :

I'm working on some scripts to help automate template creation & updating. We've always done it by hand (read: dedicate a weekend to building/sparsifying, and cleaning them up) but I'm mostly done on some automation for it.

Once that's done I can easily build a full template, all cleaned up, inside of a few minutes.

Interesting. https://buyvm.net/new-jersey-datacenter/ :

Our New Jersey location is located in the new Dupont Fabros facility in Piscataway. This location allows us to directly connect to all major backbones via NYIIX and enables us to deliver outstanding network performance to the entire North American East Coast as well as to many parts of South America.

NJ did move to NY :P Choopa is in piscataway, it's a township or whatever. I have a complaint list a mile long that @jbiloh confirmed wasn't 'just me' sometime last year.

Oh . What's the new location? I also notice all the non-slice plans except the 128MB OpenVZ are discontinued now. Sounds like a good time to get a 128MB, or a slice, not sure which .
