Is that $3,000 per month for just this (dis)service? Even if the
dedicated server is very powerful and if you would be granted reasonable
privileges, that seems like a good deal for the host. Maybe it is time
for me to go into the hosting business.

Could you find out how the hosting company gets such lucrative contracts?
