123Systems.Net is probably one of the most controversial VPS providers in the low end VPS industry. On one hand, they are definitely selling some really cheap VPS that is many of us use for backup purposes (I have yet to see another provider offering a 128MB box for 10USD per year and 192MB VPS  for 15 USD). However, they are also (in)famous on WHT for their notoriously slow response speed (see the most recent episode here). As a result, I have decided to take a look and see how things are going with them. Basic Information and Set Up I have actually been waiting relatively patiently for a while for the 128MB RAM VPS box to come on stock, however unfortunately it did not happen, and finally I decided to spend an extra 5 USD and get a 192MB RAM VPS instead, and according to their advertisement on WHT, here Read More

Just received the message from Andrew from 123Systems: We actually just released stock less than an hour ago, there is 25 spots for the 128 plan and 25 for the 192 plan. Order link is https://123systems.net/billing/cart.php?a=add&pid=149 and you can also view my previous post for more details about them, but make your move quick because only 25 are there! Good luck everyone and let us how it goes if you got one!

Just saw on the 123 Systems’ website here that they seems to have stock for the 10 USD/year VPS special again. Basically, 123Systems’ deal is one of the cheapest I have seen (even cheaper than 15USD/year BuyVM deal!) and here is what you will be getting for 10 USD: VPS – Dallas,TX – Linux-128-Yearly-Special Instant Setup! Guaranteed RAM: 128MB Burstable RAM: 128MB Disk Space: 5GB Bandwidth: 250GB/Month 1vCPU 1 IP Address SolusVM Control Panel And I think the other nice feature about them is that they offer add-ons that you only need to pay one time: 1024MB Dedicated RAM – ($65.00 USD One Time) 20 GB Disk Space – ($15.00 USD One Time) 128MB Dedicated RAM – ($5.95 USD One Time) 256MB Dedicated RAM – ($12.95 USD One Time) 512MB Dedicated RAM – ($27.95 USD One Time) I have not tried them yet and the reviews on WHT and LEB Read More
