I purchased a blade from Delimiter for a year a few months back, certainly
not at these amazing prices.
I am fairly impressed with the service for how little it costs on a
month-to-month basis. I ordered on a Thursday evening and mine was
provisioned by 10am on Friday. I had one outage a month ago for about 8
hours. Also had an incident where the blade shutdown due to a high thermal
sensor reading. A tech replaced some thermal paste on the CPU and haven't
had any problems since.
I have the Dual E5420 w/ 16GB RAM and 2x 500GB drives. I run CentOS 7 w/
KVM anda few VMs on it, and the performance has been more than adequate
for my light usage.
