Server collocation can be costly - it's probably cheaper for you to host the box at home with a 384/1.5 DSL connection. If you want the box up 99+% of the time (which may be a problem for a typical home), you're going to have to spend the $$$ for collocation.

There are places offering inexpensie collocation but they always have a catch - usually bandwidth. They may only offer cheap 1U of rack space which means you need to buy a new case. Probably not worth it.

Good luck.
