Dedicated server in $20
This request is for a friend who is looking for a dedicated server for $20. He wants to run Windows OS as host and will also create a guest VM running Windows Server using Hyper-V where he will run SharePoint. I already told him that his budget is very low and wish list is very big but let's see.
CPU: 4 cores (can be any processor except Atom or other very low end CPUs)
RAM: 16GB
SSD: 512GB (if wishes were horses) otherwise 120GB SSD + 240GB HDD
Location: Any
Bandwidth: Any
By the way KVM VPS is also an option but it must support nested virtualization.

..how? a sharepoint license is $100/user/month
windows will cost more than the server.
It also comes with 6 months trial version.
this price rarely happens .. tell him to double that and its possible.
do you basically plan on abusively reinstalling a trial version of windows and sharepoint every few months? wtf?
Try @drserver

For such a price, I'm afraid it will not be possible for you to find a dedicated server. Therefore, I recommend that you familiarize yourself with our tariffs https://pq.hosting/server.
You are not learning after multiple warnings. Enjoy your ban.
That is still better (and safer) then using a cracked copy. If he is willing to reinstall OS every 3 months, well, good for him. If he really needs it, he'll eventually buy the license, which is how they get your money.
^ then when?
