You can install anything you want on Slicehost or any other VPS; provided that you have enough linux skills to do everything yourself. There's plenty of help out there on the web, slicehost have some great tutorials for setting up your slice, and mod_wsgi is very easy to setup as a low memory alternative to mod_python. I have a 256MB slice, and for $20 per month it's excellent. If you can do it at home, you can do it on a VPS. Rich
