I’ve been recommended http://www.clustered.net and http://www.vps.net as decent UK based VPS solutions. If anyone has any experience of either of these, it’d be good to get some feedback.

Loved this interview Paul - fascinating stuff. Really makes me want to move to a VPS server for my client sites. Only thing is that I need a UK based VPS. Can anyone recommend a decent one?

Actually Thiago, they do accept PayPal!

While you're setting up your account, select Visa as your card and put 411111111111111, this will make the system continue the order without verifying the card.

Then when you get an e-mail saying the account has been set-up. Login to the account center and press the 'Billing' Tab. After that, there should be an invoice which you can pay using "Paypal" radio button.

Regards, Alec

Great interview! I absolutely love the work that the MT guys do! Their hardware and infrastructure are top notch, their customer service is one of a kind, and have you seen their new (ve) offering? It is amazing, so much value for so little!

Yet, I do have one quarrel with them. Why do they only accept international credit cards? I'd love to recommend their services to all my clients here in Brazil but unfortunately I can't because not everyone here has a international card (our banks are incredibly obnoxious). If only they accepted Paypal or wire-transfer, even if they had to charge more to do so it would still be better than not being able to contract their services...

Nice interview. Media Template - fair enough looks like the business but what about hosting .net??
