shoot me your email, i'll send you a referral invite to where i've got mine hosted..  i've got about 100 websites under the dedicated server i use there.  you pay monthly, and they rack it, and take care of all the stuff you *dont* want to do, but you get full access to it, and tech support, and they are very competent if you cannot figure out how to install something, and have a very excellent knowledge base of articles written about all the things people would want to commonly do, with step by step and have photos and the commands to run.....    // if you end up liking what they have to offer and sign up, i think i get one month free, but you get to be hooked up with a badass company i've been using for the last 12 years without a single issue, and zero downtime...
