Detailed Notes:

If the Starter LE16 was a cracking little dedi server, then the Midrange MR20 is far better again in all but two areas. It has the best CPU out of any fully dedicated server in this database and it has a reasonable amount of RAM, but you pay for those with a rotten 10Mbit network port which is too 1990s for most server applications.

Pros:

Outstanding CPU, best in this database and probably will remain so for some time to come.

Cons:

Crappy 10Mbit network port. Adding extra transfer is very expensive, though at 10Mbit you're not likely to be transferring much past 1Tb a month anyway.

Verdict:

If you can put up with the 10Mbit network port and need plenty of CPU horsepower, look nowhere else.
