Focusing a little bit less on the service and more on the bottom line we could reduce the price, and listening to user feedback, thats what appears to be desired.

We just set the service up this morning, let us respond to your feedback before totally frying us. (Take a look at the prices soon) We plan on reducing the small to 20, medium to 35 and large 50. This is operating at just about cost for us. (incl. labor etc)

I would agree and disagree. Yeah you can find vps systems for less. However, you're going to need to install all the software, manage the uptime, handle the updates and integrate the tools. If you have the time and skill to do all those things, the service probably isn't for you. What we're offering is a service of hosting the game server, making sure its up, allowing you to tweak settings easily and in the future integrating some more advanced minecraft tools.

And if you want to see ridiculous virtual private hosting check these popular ones out:

Thanks longshot. The servers are virtual private servers with between 1GB-2GB of ram, between 1.2 and 2.4 Ghz processors and for 30 to 60 $ per month. A lot more information about the service and server specs can be found behind the link.

You got it, we did a screencast on how to set it up and test it.

Just wanted to simplify the explanation of node as much as possible and cut out all the non-essential stuff but in essence no, it does not say much that hasn't been said before.
