ISP hosting with Virtual PC

Source: microsoft.public.virtualpc

Message:

I designed and tested a web site using Virtual PC hosting Window Server 2003.
I would like to move it to an ISP with fast bandwidth. Is it as easy as
copying my .vhd and/or .vmc files to the ISP?

I've searched for an ISP that uses Virtual PC, but I can't find one. Does
anyone know of a list of ISPs that use Virtual PC?

Thanks in advance

Why don't you just copy the website files to the ISPs sever?

I also have SQL server, a chat server, an email server and various other
system settings installed. It's great now because it's all contained in a
..vhd file. I just wish I could pay some ISP $$$ to host that .vhd file.

Are all those services running on one virtual server you currently
have? If you want to move that to an ISP to host it for you, I'm
assuming it's because of volume. If that's the case, then maybe you
should separate those functions onto separate servers and then have
the ISP host some of those services.

Just my opinion...

Hi Arnold,

No, volume is not a problem. The problem is the cost of colocating a
machine and connection speed/bandwidth. I'm looking for a better ISP and I
wish I could just copy my .vhd file which already has everything I need.
Everything is set up and running, I just need a place that can host the .vhd
file. I must be missing the point of Virtual PC/Virtual Server... I thought
everyone would want to be doing this.

Any ISPs listening? How about it? I have $$$ to spend.
