ColoCrossing is a large American company that owns and operates data centers in several US cities and in Dublin, Ireland. From these data centers they offer VPS and VDS virtualized servers at some of the lowest prices in America, with an emphasis on cheap high-bandwidth VPSs with up to 20TB of monthly data transfer. It is worth noting though that the performance of their Intel CPUs on shared servers has been complained about, and it is commonly recommended to install Linux instead of Windows on these VPSs to avoid overloading the CPU.
