I have a JR4 site I want to start migrating over. I suppose I could pay the migration fee also if that would make things easier. You guys used to have a link for installation prices, not sure if you took that off or not.

Thank you!
Brian

Have you looked at the guide for doing this?

http://www.jamroom.net/brian/documentation/guides/1188/high-performance-jamroom-on-digitalocean

It really is pretty straightforward if you follow this to the letter.
The DO servers are 'self maintained' so even if someone sets it up for you, you would still need to maintain/upgrade etc. on a regular basis so its worthwhile doing things yourself and getting the hang of things there.

Yeah real important to understand that one of the reasons DO is so cheap is that there is no support.

They are giving you the hardware for you to do whatever you like with. Support is limited to about "is the server running?".

After that its up to you.

There is however an IRC peer support channel on freenode at #digitalocean which is very active.

They're a bit better than this, but aren't going to help you setup your server - they will definitely give you pointers and links to other how to guides though, which can be helpful.
