Dialtone Internet, announced today that it will give away
up to 2,000 brand new, sub-$2000 Linux-based, internet servers to
new customers who sign-up for a minimum 3 year collocation
agreement.
These internet servers are suited for web-hosting
and feature AMD K6-2 400 Mhz processors, 128 MB of memory, and 4.3
GIG Hard Drives. In addition, servers come loaded with Dialtone
Internet’s proprietary Linux “Server Interface Kx” software for
DNS/Web/Mail administration….”

“These servers will be hosted at the Dialtone Internet
facilities and will be backed by a technical and service warranty.
There are no vouchers to redeem or rebates to cash in. “We’ve built
our company on the premise that dedicated servers should be
accessible to everyone,” says Dialtone Internet founder and CEO, Al
Albarracin. “In just four days of testing our program, we gave away
over 32 new servers. You can’t make it any easier than giving away
a free Linux server.”

“While demand for dedicated servers and Internet data center
services continues to build across a wide demographic spectrum,
Dialtone Internet is raising the bar to a new level. Based in Fort
Lauderdale, Florida, Dialtone Internet is a direct provider of data
center services. It currently serves and supports dedicated
servers, including mission critical web systems, for clients
worldwide and a network of over 274 dedicated server resellers from
over 41 countries.”
