Does anyone know if any mud hosting services are familiar (at all) with the
various UO server-emulators available?  Seems like every private shard out
there is running on someone's home PC, but lots more people (I imagine) would
like to run them, if there were a hosting service that could accommodate
them.

And yeah, it takes about 600 MB for the mapfiles and such, but a person could
have multiple shards sharing the same mapfiles, since they are read-only.  

The emulators themselves are quite a bit smaller.  Our 'worldfile' is quite a
bit smaller than most mud's, I think.  And we're running with something like
64 RAM on a P200, 30+ users before there's any noticeable lag (ADSL
connection).  I look at most mud hosting service's packages and think their
upper-end packages could EASILY handle a UOemulator.  And if they shared the
main, read-only files between multiple shards, their lower-end packages could
do it, too.
