I'll second or third linode.  As for a colo, when I shopped around, I found cihost.com in Dallas, TX.  It's about $100/mo, but they offer 3000GB of transfers per month.  I took my machine and racked it there, but you can also ship it and they'll rack it for you.  I chose cihost because they were the cheapest around, Atlanta colos were at least 250/mo with crappy bandwidth restrictions when I did my comparison shopping.

Vintage computing sites don't have much traffic and I'd rather have a guaranteed rate plan that cost as little as possible.  Also something down town like 55/56 Marietta is preferable over Lawrenceville/Duluth for when something goes wrong as I live in PTC now.  I've literally had to sleep in the Telex building before and concrete is hard!
