Cool! Like I said, I wanted to hear some personal experiences. I went ahead
and signed up for
6 months. I really like the fact that I get my own box with my own root
access. This way I can
have complete control over the system and not have to share services with
anyone else.
I signed up, it took about 24 hours, then i got an email that said my slice
was ready. After I paid,
it took about 2-4 minutes for the slice to be ready to run.
So far so good. I got the Gentoo 256mb slice.
Thanks for the tip.
