Default Looking for a pretty powerful dedicated

Hi,

Im looking for a dedicated server that i'd personally like it to be hosted in UK, It needs to be i guess really fast as their will always be around 100-150 users online, Doesn't have to have a huge hard drive, something along the lines of 30gb-60

Any ideas who to go with?
Ross

We bought this the other day and it seems to be working very well! They have expensive plans aswel as value plans,

http://www.hostinganddesigns.com/Val...edServers.html

We bought the Intel Core i7 860 QC 2.8Ghz which is 199$ per month. It is hosted in the USA but I live in Ireland and the connection is really good also they offer cisco ddos protection.

Am I the only one who feels you don't need a dedicated for 100-150 co-current users?

Nope. A good VPS is all they would need.

If you can manage your own VPS, go with linode.com

I've been with them for 6 months now...I constantly have around 100 users online and my forum is heavily modded. I'm also on their smallest plan...

Haven't had any downtime or any issues. They know how to manage their nodes and you won't get a slow VPS like with other companies. Their prices are a bit higher than other companies, but it's worth it.

a good 75$/m VPS is all you need... sure your webmaster will love to work on a dedicated, he trills to have one...

This is going off topic a bit, but why on earth anyone would use a VPS at $75/m or more when fully dedicated servers are available from $29 to $99 a month is beyond me.
