Hosting Needed: Ragnarok Online Game Server

OS: Debian Linux
CPU: 3.0 GHz Intel Pentium 4 with Hyper Threading
RAM: 2048MB DDR RAM
Bandwidth: 1,000GB Monthly
Connection: 100MBit via Tier 1 Backbone
Disk Space: 160GB
Extras: It may take me a few tries to get the server setup correctly as this is my first time working with Linux. Please let me know what the fee for a reinstallation would be or if you offer any kind of administration packages, include the cost please, that cover reinstallations.


Note: Obviously any specs that exceed those specified are welcome. Please do not post if any component is below what I have specified above or if you are unable to offer Debian. I need these specs, bare minimum. I was hoping to pay somewhere in the neighborhood of $150.

Okay sorry to bring all this to an full spin for you there "StCroixWebs"

Server stock costs - $47900
Thats only for the following direct from SUN
Sun StorageTek 5320 NAS Appliance
1 x 2.6 GHz Processor
4 GB Memory
8 x 300 GB 10000 rpm FC Disks
2 Dual-Port Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter
4 x 10/100/1000 Ethernet Ports
Rack-Ready

Lets see, thats only 4GB ram, lets say each 1GB is only $90/one time (highly unlikely but still) thats an extra - $2520

Now Processor your saying its an 3.6GHZ i didnt even see that one on the option for this model so lets say thats bs and you were bluffing that bit.

Next your giving this machine full use minus space to this client for $300/month and that is just to use the machine, at 1/4's its space lets say, plus you want the client to pay the colocation fee, and your only allowing it to be in your area, so hey lets look at this again.

Your paid (if this is your machine)
$47900 + $2520 = $50420

Now you havent got an home for this so right now the client pays the following:
$300 + Colocation ($100/month) = $400

Whos paying shipping? you him both?
Shipping cost - $100

So lets say you split the cost:
Your total so far - 50520
Client paying - $400 (-100 on colo)
Total after 1 year profit - $-46920
To break even you would need him as an client for 14 years.

TELL ME who allows themself this far of debt, on an machine like that, when its worth so much more. AND IT HAS NO HOME. please take your offer somewere were people dont care if there scammed.

Thanks,
Josh

* note this is not an flame in anyway, just trying to gather the information and reason why this doesnt add up to me, if the poster can prove this is legit, hell im almost willing to purchase that space etc. for $300/month + colocation. Hell 32GB ram thats an power house, i can make big $$ off it.
** Information gathered from:
SUN - Website - Server Package
TigerDirect - Ram Information - My old suplier (this shows 1GB for 150/month so come on)
