Colo Recommendations...

SEO Training.

My current $30/mo mah'n'pop colo is closing doors in 2months; I've been served my eviction notice after 10yrs of faithful service.

I've done the math and have decided I can either upgrade my home feed to FIOS Business Class (2.0/6.0Mbps, static IP) or I can try to find another colo that's $50/mo or less.

I only have one server, Sun E250 (~7RU, I can buy rack kit to get it down to 6RU). I don't need a big internet feed; sharing a T1 is more than enough. Also don't need (to pay for) 24/7 access, 8-5 with escort is fine by me -- I need to physically touch the box about once every 18mo (hardware upgrade, typically). I can also provide my own UPS if needed.

Any of you fellow geeks have something in mind?

[edit to add]
No I can't use a hosted solution. I need to run the entire show, top-to-bottom. Not my rules (come to think of it, I don't have any rules *snicker*).

I'm not running porn or spam, so there's no risk of me bumping into someone's morals.

Thanks.

No recommendation but...

I know the guys that run Colotraq, and basically you can use them for free to find whatever type of colo facility that meets your specifications. Might be worth a shot.

Why do you need to run the server? Is it really worth that much more work?
