If you are serious about hosting, and do not want to get your own dedicated T1/T3 line, get a collocated dedicated server. This will run you less than $200/month for a great setup. You get complete control over your own server, no bull****.

Yep, colo servers are great if you can get some set up.

Colos are also great if you're within driving distance and can get there in a hurry to fix issues. Colos will bring a good bit of extra expense to cover your *** for all the possible failures that fall outside the providers realm of responsibility.

The single least reliable piece of equipment in a datacenter is the server itself.

Managed backups on colos are less than optimal.
