[OT]: Cdn hosting for (extremely) high-load web sites?

[Alex Beamish]

Hi Scott,

I've been a customer of pair Networks for half a dozen years now, and
can highly recommend them. FWIW, they're in Pittsburgh, PA -- they
have dedicated servers that seem to be pretty darn beefy. For the
amount of traffic you're talking about, check out their Dedicated
Servers:

  http://www.pair.com/services/dedicated/

The beefiest of these (the QS-5) is specced as follows:

- Our highest tier dedicated server
- FreeBSD 6.2 Operating System
- Core 2 Quad Q6600 (2.4Ghz) CPU
- 1066MHz Front Side Bus
- 8 GB DDR2 667 ECC RAM
- 750GB Hard Drive
- 750GB ShadowDrive(R) Included
- 5,000GB/month traffic
- GigE NIC (Network Interface Card)
- Daily back-ups
- Server monitored 24/7/365
- Fully supported managed service

That costs $999/month, and you can also get two of those,
load-balanced, for $1,599/month (that's the QS-6).

And you can take a walk through their data center, starting here ..

Looking forward to seeing what's behind door number 3. ..
