Nice discussion going on here guys... I understand your points of views and I completely agree with you.

I'm not looking to make a huge amount of money, in fact I'm only looking to sort of 'share' a dedicated server to help cover the costs.

I've been looking at dedicated servers etc. for a few hours, and well I've decided that I'm going to get a dedicated server, for my projects, but to help cover the cost, or even maybe make a bit of profit each month I will sell some hosting. I''ll be sorting out the support issue later on down the line.

H2F, Dedicated servers are nothing like shared or reseller accounts which you may have used in the past. It is your job to keep the server secure and up to date. Hope you know a lot about dedicated servers, or else you may be having issues.

I understand Jako,

Could you explain to me what the difference is between managed and un-managed dedicated servers?

I'm going to be reading up on keeping them running etc. soon...

Managed servers means someone else looks after them for you, upgrades them etc. Make sure you get a control panel on a dedicated server

I thought that was it Robson, oh and yes I can't live without Cpanel lol...

I've decided not to actually go into the business, Instead i'm going to be looking for one or two people to share a dedicated server with. If you're interested, PM me
