i tried to sign up with rackshack today, but their signup is broken. at one point, you get to a page to attach an account to the server (or something to that effect, the signup process is pretty tedious), and the form on the page has read-only fields for the password (and confirmation) that are empty, but which it tries to verify on submission. and since they're empty, that fails.

wanted: unmanaged dedicated server with reasonable connectivity and bandwidth, debian installed (or installable), and a signup process that works. i'm willing to pay $99/month. i'm not too picky about machine configuration, although a reasonable amount of ram (≥512megs) would be preferable.

i should probably look at building a server and using something like the california community colocation project, since one of the main reasons i'm looking at a dedicated server is so i can improve blo.gs. time to research the costs of putting together a rackmount server.
