FREE 512MB RAM 20GB HDD 100GB BANDWIDTH VPS! - You Are Free - Jan 8, 2011
http://chunkhost.com/
I'm going to set up a minecraft server, also, I got my "chunk", now I have to check the CPU speed, I'll post later with it.
Works!
I don't know the CPU speed, but it works for me, see later post.

You need more than 512 mb to PLAY Minecraft let alone host a server unfortunately. Also, it's only for the first month as a note to potential users and U.S. only.

512MB is more then enough to host a server for 2, which is what I'm going to do.

Nice. I'll try this out. How long is the beta up for?

FAIL. you need to enter cc info to verify your from USA

So? I did it and there were no charges.

Fuck!! asks for credit card ! & I don't think any one would like to provide the sensitive information like that. Then will charge some 1.xx $ for sign up & will refund that immediately to verify that you are in US or not.
Anyways thanks to OP for that.

It asks for a card, really?

I don't think it really matters, their all linux. try Ubuntu 10.04

We don't know if this is a real company, probably a fake database, and VPS.
* - Nift - Jan 8, 2011
Maybe, thats why I'm not signing up. Probably gonna steal my cc info >_>

Yeah, It does. The OS available are only linux.

Looks like a scam when I enter the right CC details it says it's can't verify them because of a strange reason so I think it is stealing the CC info for some reason or other >,>
that's only an oppion it up to you if you wanna signup or not :)

<<WARNING>> It's either a scam or closed beta, so no point in entering your info. I entered my cc info (created a virtual account with a low limit through my bank) and after it verified everything was correct, it says:
Quote:Sadly, we are already at capacity for our beta test, but will remedy that soon and get in touch with you as soon as your Chunk has been made live!
Thanks a ton for helping us beta test! We really appreciate it! We'll give you plenty of notice when we think we're ready to start charging people money.
Your pal,
ChunkHost
Edit: and even though it says that the $1.01 is refunded instantly after the charge is made, the $1.01 charge is still showing up on my card...
