		<title>Xen Based Cloud VPS:: Entry 2: Fiddling with The Available Virtual Images</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There I was getting things started, when... It was just too tempting so...I deleted my ubuntu 10.04 64 bit PV image of my server and decided to take a gander at what else this Xen Based Cloud Hosting had to offer.FIrst of all, after my confirations to delete the virtual cloud server, I only had to wait seconds before I could deploy a new server. And now I could test any of their supports OSs.This had me thinking back to all the time I spent reinstalling different distros back when I was first giving linux a shot. Having a virtual host like this would of been real nice. However, none of the servers run guis... and I guess I could of achieved a similar thing had I used just plain old virtual machines.But, the way I can just pick and choose them, and have them deployed instantly (I can delete one, and deploy in less than a min) is quite convinient and efficient. Unfortunatley, it takes a while to test out different distros and learn the real diffreences behind them.]]></description>

		<title>Xen Based Cloud VPS:: Entry 1: Just The Beginning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After tinkering around with my ubuntu home server for a while, I 
began thinking about getting a VPS with a dedicated IP. My Home server 
just used a free dyndns (I don't think you can add free dyndns 
sub-domain names to the free account anymore) account which, in 
cooperation with my router, kept my dynamic IP binded with the free 
sub-domain name.Now, anyone who has gotten any sort of webspace 
knows that there is almost no use in searching for "hosting". The market
 is flooded with good, bad and terrible hosts and it takes some probing 
to feel confident about the perfect (best bang for buck) hosting 
package. There are the main conglomerates (which are expensive) and the 
el' cheapo companies who are probably just subleasing out space they got
 from the big company. Just, do your research.I'm no ultra 
expert, so I wanted flexibility. I wanted a chance to play around and 
figure out if I made a mistake before I sign on to any sort of premium 
package.Basic Requirements:      -]]></description>
