Have you considered Virtual Private Servers (VPS)? Many web hosting
companies offer VPS for cheap. I've had mine for almost 2 years and it
runs almost like a dedicated system (I can't change the system time or
alter the file systems). I have mail, web, dns, etc running on it.
These places usually offer a wide range of distros - my next VPS will be
CentOS4. The cost ranges from $20-100/month - I'm paying about
$350/year. I don't think you'll find a colo for that price and the
bandwidth is great.
Check out spry.com - they seem to be on the lower (not lowest) end of
the price spectrum and they have a special this month. I'm not
recommending nor dis'ing them.
