debian mirrors saturated in france due to this operation maybe ?
All the choices are slow, not just debian.
Possibly, I'm trying Ubuntu now
all downloaded from the same image server..?
You know any good free online-credit card service which use ones paypal account for withdrawal?
fek it i got my second dedi
Nope, I'm a winner.

Ordered just now, delivered 7 minutes later - stock still there if people want it
I installed Windows Standard_2012_r2 (64BITS) on my dedi but its language is French. Could you please tell me how to change to English? I tried but I can't understand (Windows Standard 2012 is new to me). Thanks!
im really wondering how endless their stock really is..., im guessing we ordered like hundreds of the dedis now...
I think i got one. Atleast they told me that they accepted my payment and it will be delivered. So i think i need to wait…
EDIT: Got mine.
Ubuntu12.04 x86 takes ~75min, and I got an old Hitachi of 28k hours.
did you read the page before hitting install button?

Here are some sources regarding IPv6 & Debian.

(I haven't look at them yet)
You realise they charge you 23 euro or something a month for that???
@tridinebandim
Actually, no. It's French and I purchased by using browser on my phone. I'm reading it now.
you can cancel the windows (no fees for the first 10 days)
The method in #23 is legit, and you even don't need to install that crap dibbler.
@cdejour you work for online.net ?
Only 1 core @1.6 Ghz and DDR2? Crap.
I reinstall my dedi with CentOS, will they charge me anymore?
For 2 Euro? 1Gbit Network, Power, Support, Hardware, change failure hardware.
uhm...
You are perfectly right, this server cost much more than the price offered to our customers. Just electricity is approx 0,80-90€ / month + credit card transaction fees + support + bandwidth + datacenter + PUE ...
We've sold 2000 servers in few hours, with no communication (nothing on our web site, no forum/tweeter/fb announcement), only an hidden link leaked on our IRC channel, in August (holidays here), an Friday (nobody put production on Friday), launched at lunch time.
This is a pure marketing research operation, made in order to have many new customer testing our services, servers, support and network.
We prefer to deliver an service for 1,99€ per month (and cost us 3 or 4€ per month and per customer) instead of spending thousands euros per day on Google Adwords for nothing. This operation cost much less than other traditional marketing rules and my conversion rate is 100% :-)

Not true. They have a link at the bottom of their website.
That still doesn't make economical sense. The cost of advertising can be recouped over time as customers renew services month after month. With the described tactic above, Online.net would be making a constant loss.
I smell BS anyway, this statement has apparently come from the CEO of Online.net by email, sent to mtwiscool.
@kcaj selling 2000 servers at a loss of 2 EUR per month = 4000 EUR per month
Pissing off Octave from OVH = priceless ;-)
Good catch
@Spirit what does his IP say?
Surely they plan to upsell customers onto bigger boxes?
