Option 4, a VPS (Virtual Private Server).
Should cost you around $15 a month and will allow you to install apache, etc
as you see fit without paying the higher costs of collocation or a dedicated
server.

That is the question.
I realize this topic comes up more often than hairballs from an angora.
This question is SLIGHTLY different.
I (and a group of like minded individuals) are looking at minimum to have a
website and forums. The forums can be phpbb2 or something similar.
The website and forums will probably have hundreds of hits per day on a busy
day.
We already have a domain name and would need that pointed to the new server.
I've tossed around the following ideas.
1 - Find a hosting service that offers these exact services (if such a
hoster
exists).
2 - Rent a server with enough bandwidth. Install Linux, Apache, php, etc.
and
run the whole thing ourselves.
3 - Get a business DSL line to my home and set up a server here to do all
this.
I'm not sure which is most cost effective but I would guess choice number 1.
I could sure use the group's collective thought's and advice on this.
Suggest some companies if you can.
Thanks,
Bob
