I'm not looking to run this machine from home or to co-locate an existing box (though I suppose I could do that). As Jay mentions, I'm looking for something like: http://tektonic.net/unmanaged.html http://www.leeware.com/vps100.html http://rosehosting.com/virtserv.html (all bad examples because none of them offer FreeBSD) -- We're just a Bunch Of Regular Guys, a collective group that's trying to understand and assimilate technology. We feel that resistance to new ideas and technology is unwise and ultimately futile.
