[olug] VPS options?

I was using openvirtuals but have switched to Linode about 8 months ago.

Openvirtuals has a better pricing option for what you get than Linode but
found the actual bandwidth speeds to get to the box to be very slow, not
good for hosting sites :)

I use and like Atlantic.net.

I host most of my domains on a $1/month server.  But that doesn't look like
an option on their list anymore.

I also have a $5/month "extra small" server I use for stuff I'm playing with
at the moment https://www.atlantic.net/cloud-hosting/pricing/
