Bought another irresistible dedicated server offer

I just bought another irresistible dedicated server offer from a reputable provider (although I have no use of it at the moment). The details of the mouth watering deal is

Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-2100 CPU @ 3.10GHz
4GB DDR3 Memory
500 Gig Sata hard drive
100mbit network
5 IPs

all that for just $49/mo

I got the hard upgraded to a 1TB Sata3 and memory (RAM) upgraded to a whopping 12GB (some one you may be surprised to see ONLY 12GB but for me, this is the heaviest system I have rented to date). I am planning to keep it running even though I have no use for it at the moment.

 

Update:
