    What is a good dedicated server host service?

    What is a good cheap dedicated server rig?

    I'm deciding whether to build a server or use a service.

    I'm looking into it and any information would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    building ur own is fine as long as you will like to maintain it...you stick it in a datacenter, your restricted to the dc's hours/rules/terms/conditions...and you are also responsible for hardware,etc...renting usually is the best route for most people..

    i myself haven't used hosting in a while but i hear mediatemplate.net has great customer service..
