Microsoft appears to be ready to offer a windows based service similar to Amazon's ec2.

I am not sure that I would make much use of this type of service, as I am looking for something more like GoGrid or Mosso (which I wrote about a few days ago).

Should prove to be very interesting...

This is a well known log analyzer application that can provide a nice web interface for viewing we stats.

Here is a deal that will get you free setup ($599) with gowebman. 599/month for a 1/2 cabinet and 1mbps "free".

ColoQuest works out of the Level3 on Canal.

NaviSite is the owner of the Oakbrook datacenter. Pricing was: 375/month for a 1/2 cabinet + 300/month for 1mbps.

I can't believe I didn't find this search tool before!

Here are some more colos in chicago:
FDC
iLand
xNet

FDC offers colo from the BOT building. 99/month gets you 4U of space and 4mbit connection. I bet that wouldn't be guaranteed but... whatever. Free IP's available (as long as you justify it).

Problem The 99 is "per server". So even if you have 1 web server and 1 DB, you are looking at 200/month. STUPID!
