Hosting a webserver

I ran a website on SDSL for many months, (it was a previous employer's site)
and have setup DSL for many people at home through USwest, all you have to
do is go to their webpage and log in, you can order static IP's (5 I
believe) for $15 more a month right on the page.  

As for hardware, I ran RH6.0 on a pentium 233 with 64MB ram, and 9GB of scsi
storage.  And there was never a problem with the system being a bottleneck.
Given it wasn't a high-traffic site and there was no real database activity.
So hardware shouldn't really be your concern, all co-lo sites I've seen are
at least $200 a month, more than that if you want better bandwidth, secure
access, blah-de-blah..
