Affordable Colocation

No matter how hard you look for a colo datacenter, they all seem to push hard on offering fancy services and causing a big impression. There's nothing wrong with that, but as a result, costs typically go up beyond those of dedicated servers.

Would this work for offering affordable colo and still make a profit:

- no customer visits, all equipment shipped, plugged in, and turned on: requires no fancy reception area, less security measures, no parking space, no glossy facilities.

- limit power requirements or charge per watt consumed: avoids charging customers by max available power and charge for the amount actually used.

If that's a possibility, there just might be a market out there for cheap colo for the masses.
