SPUG: [OT] Shared colocation?

I don't think this is exactly what James is looking for. But his inquiry
made me think to spam y'all with an offer (maybe even helping James,
shrug).

I have rack space to share (you provide your own box). But there's a
catch. It's in my basement with UPS (main server up 205 days even through
complete house wiring upgrade) and climate controls (well, I'll install
the AC down here if it ever gets warmer than 75F) on a 768 kbps SDSL
circuit (Covad via Speakeasy, pray Tauzin-Dingell doesn't pass). I'm
looking to defray my costs (bandwidth and electricity). So, the price
would be honest and reasonable, the bandwidth relatively limited on a
single uplink circuit and not much in the way of guarantees.

Contact me privately (andrew at sweger.net) if you're interested. There are
many points on which I can negotiate (including circuit speed if we decide
to upgrade).
