Linode ROCK!

Apparently it’s Christmas (again!) in Fremont, Dallas and Atlanta.

I’ve been a very happy Linode customer for two years, enjoying excellent network and host reliability, and their occasional loyalty upgrades. You know, 20% RAM here, 20% HDD there. They’re very good to us. :-)

So imagine my surprise and pleasure this afternoon when I noticed their 100% RAM and HDD plan upgrade… which they’ve passed on to all their loyal customers too! HOLY COW!

    Yer not wrong mate. They rock! Been using Linode since April 2004 and they’ve been nothing but brilliant. At first with a Linode64 the lack of RAM was a bit crappy, but I managed. Now I get 384 megs! I did upgrade to the next category up, mind, but at the time that was 128 megs RAM!

    Last time I looked at Linode they were over priced for what they offered, now they rock. Signed up today for a cheapo one!

    An entire data centre is yet to have the needed additional provisioning and they say it will be “slow going”.

    Yes and sadly I’m in that data centre :( Might see if I can get moved to another one.

    will be an issue based on my current usage. i can use less disk-space by archiving things off to other places like amazon’s s3, such as the access logs for this site that go back to 1997. there are other virtual server providers, of course, but jeff waugh’s praise of linode is what got me started on looking into this again. they look like they have their act together, based on the activity in their forums and how they present themselves in general. so many of the other providers seem so dodgy.
