You should play monthly, otherwise you don't get use out of it.

You should be aware that any computer can be a server, all you need is the proper software. So how much for a cheap computer is the one time payment for a dedicated server. For speed, however, you have many options. You can use your cable internet at home, or get a corperate package. You can also send your server to some major backbone (co-location). It's wide open.

www.ev1servers.net is pretty popular...though I haven't used them myself so I don't know how good they are.

If you're looking for a game server host or a webhost, www.klan-host.us has been the best in my experience, great prices and impeccable service.

If you're looking for a dedicated server, www.buzhost.com is a brother-site to klan-host.us, but you can get dedicated servers there, and you'll be paying atleast $60/month for a low end server, which isn't very good for playing games on.

If you're looking for a dedicated server I'd go here, where you'll be paying $60/month for a low end server that would be fine for playing games on :)

Could use some more RAM, but it doesn't seem low end to me.

I'd think their support for SCO's battle against Linux is reason enough to look elsewhere for managed hosting.
