Via this WHT offer. SimplyWebHosting.com is a brand of Advantagecom Networks Inc that has been around since 1998 and has been selling VPS for 8 years. We covered them almost 2 years ago, and I have just noticed something interesting about their Economy hwVPS plan, which starts at $15/month. However when you pay annually, it comes down to $60/year (=$5/month). Here is a direct link to sign up, and the plan comes with

512MB memory
199GB storage
2TB/month data transfer
Xen
CentOS x64 only

The servers are in Walla Walla in the state of Washington (test IP: 66.29.157.55, kudos to Wing Loon), 4 and half hours drive from Seattle according to Google Maps (for those of us who aren’t familiar with cities in US). ~200GB of storage backed by SAS drives in RAID10 and 2TB/month data makes it a great backup server. CentOS 64bit only though, so for the Gentoo/Debian/Arch/Ubuntu fans might have to put up with yum and now pretty dated CentOS 5.

Use WHT0512 also give you $10 off one-time discount so your first year would just be $50.
