Old Promo Giveaway (Ends August 3rd)
I have a promo from SemoWeb that I no long need. For $5.99/mo, you'll get the following specs:
Quad core @ 3.4GHz
2GB RAM
2GB vSwap (This has been lowered due to reasons beyond my control)
100GB SSD
4TB monthly Bandwidth @ 100Mbps (Unconfirmed, it's what I assume due to downloads)
1 IPv4
The secret bonus (which was an additional 3 IPv4) has been removed due to reasons beyond my control.
To get the server, you simply have to tell me what you would use it for. Winner will be whomever's answer I like the best. The next invoice is due on August 3rd - I will pay this final invoice, and then have the VPS transferred to you.
Some benchmarks:
(will add more as they're available)
To clarify: I am asking no money for this server. Straight transfer, with you taking over payments on September 3rd. I do have permission from SemoWeb to do this transfer.
Disclaimer: They never mentioned whether it had to be a current client or not, so that is your responsibility to take care of if you win.
Addition number 1: Sorry, I guess I need to specify. Please comment with your answer.

i would probably use it for developing some scripts in python, perl and ruby. Yeah that's it. No fancy gameserver hosting or sth.
semoweb=urpad=rootcrap tech?
Yes, but where else you gonna get 100GB SSD at that price? Performance of the server is stellar, 100% uptime the entire time I've had it. Support is lacking, but I generally don't need to use it. If you're someone who needs a good support team, maybe this server isn't the one for you
where is the server location??
Cypress, Texas. It's listed as Houston though (only ~30 mile difference)
Some more benchmarks:
What is the cost for more RAM?
Seeing as these are old promotional plans, I doubt they can be upgraded. You'd have to submit a ticket and ask.
Not enough interest + unexpected lack of funds = I cannot renew on the third. If anyone wants it, you will need to pay the invoice.
