Subject: [olug] Cheap local co-lo?


Hi,

Does anyone know of a good/cheap co-location facility in the Omaha area?
I've seen the topic a few times on the mailing list but was wondering if the
situation in Omaha has changed.  The one good co-lo I knew of in town has
disappeard.

I'm currently thinking about the possibility of finding someone who can get
DSL (I can't in my house 50th&Center area) and hosting the server at their
place or trying out Microlnk's http://www.microlnk.com/ wireless service.
Speaking of which does anybody on the mailing list use Microlnk?

As for the parameters for how much bandwidth I would need.  I really don't
know yet.  I'm hoping the site/project might be semi-popular but it could
also go into limbo pretty easily.

I'm also thinking about just using a hosting service that provides databases
but I would like/need to run some custom code on the site which a lot of
hosting services won't allow.

Any thoughts/ideas/comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Aaron
