Thanks Jared.
The offer has been extended to the end of the week (Feb 27th)
We are getting a lot of great support through the MangoLassi community. I will make sure we get some really awesome exclusive offers for you guys. -
Anybody who purchases a one time server does not have any monthly recurring charges.
If you are buying a dev server, for example a Dev 2 server, the pricing options are set up that way to allow users to consider how long they will require the server for. Some users only need a server for 2 months... $10 / month is a very fair price to charge, and for the user, extremely low amount to pay...
If you are keeping your dev server for a while and are going to have it more than 7 months, a one time $70 fee is amazing... never worry about paying for your server again. Especially when you're getting 20% off.... **$56 for a lifetime Dev 2 server. **

Are there any restrictions (other then capacity) on the Dev line as compared to the Big Dog line?

Windows not available until you get to the Big Dogs.

Sorry if I was not clear on the concern. Your site clearly states the one time cost is a temporary thing. I want to know if there are plans for that to go away or not.
For the ease of a couple month server space, this is looking like a really nice setup for short term systems.
For the price point of a one time cost, this is also a really nice setup for longer lasting systems.

The one time cost differentiates us from others in the marketplace and has been working very well for us.
I have not heard of any plans to remove that offer anytime soon. -

I have not heard of any plans to remove that offer anytime soon.That would be good. It is a major differentiator. Makes a huge difference.

That looks tops.
Do many people use the two low end packages?
What do you you lot use them for?- I'd like to set one up but I don't know what I'd use it for.

Yes, those one time cost plans are very different and the reason I am attracted to the service. The clients I serve do not tend to do things for short time frames. so a server here paid once is just a great idea for something that will run for 2-4 years

Is there a way to enable bandwidth caps so you don't get billed?

You should be able to do that effectively inside of the OS.

Just straight forward PHP / HTML. Currently hosted over at Media Temple.

Now to figure out the easiest way to host my own sites!CentOS with LAMP and ISP Config 3 or Froxlor would be the easiest way unless you want to pay for Cpanel..

Good starting place. Although that tends to build out lot of extra stuff. That's meant for people running their own hosting provider!
-
Thanks for all the input. I believe that LAMP is up and running properly. I looked into both ISP Config and Froxlor. I like the look of ISP Config. However, the tutorials I've read appear "complicated" with lots of steps.
Do I really need to disable the firewall, SELinux, install all of these extra packages, etc?
-
Firewall should not be disabled, just ports 80 and 443 opened. Firewall should always be on.
Disabling SELinux is pretty important, if you don't do that you will need to know how to configure it.
