The Rackspace charges are shown as an incredible $560/month, which seems quite insane. I guess if you’re donating you can put whatever number you like and use that on your tax forms…

That is insane!  We run a lot of servers at AWS and the most expensive one is around $2500 a year.

We need to get the box admins and web teams to tell us about that. 
 
I added Box Admins.  I took this off the public list so we could disucss it privately.

Hello Box Admins, 

Can you let me know if this would be good enough?

We would add extra disk drive space so would need to know how much and what OS is required.  I normally run on CentOS 6.7 but could also do Ubuntu if for some reason that would be better.
