    VPS, would be like my own PC server, without the maintance, cost.
    One could load this VPS with their programs, and users could access it anywhere. Their PC could be small ? older ?no need to win7 or 8?
    Does anyone use a VPS?
    Thanks

    A VPS can be cheaper than a dedicated or multitenanted conventional host. You would use it to host non-HTTP services (like a chat server, etc.). In most cases you can install nearly anything you want there, instead of only getting shared space on a server running rageddy old PHP or ASP.Net (possibly with email and FTP support).

    It isn't something Joe PC would normally use.
