Prgmr.com - $5 64MB Xen VPS + Free First Month

Prgmr.com has been around offering Linux and NetBSD Xen VPS for a while but last time I checked they had temporarily suspended new sign ups. Good news is — they are back! You can now sign up to their Xen VPS offerings, including their low-end $5/month VPS in Herakles DC in Sacramento.

  • 64MB memory
  • 10GB 5GB storage
  • 20GB monthly transfer
  • Debian 3/4, Ubuntu 7.04, CentOS 4/5, FedoraCore, Slackware, NetBSD

Currently they are offering a time limited special — first month is free, because “prgmr.com is still something of a mess”.

Update: Prgmr.com is now offering 5GB instead of 10GB of storage because of mirroring. Doing RAID 1 is a Good ThingTM — you get 2x the read speed, but most importantly, a failed drive does not take hours (or days!) of downtime.
