What are you talking about? Co-location prices may be more hidden or
require a consultation with a salesperson, but hosting companies are
quick to point out their hosting rates.  One click off the homepage for 
www.he.net tells us that hosting plans can be had for 9.95 - 299.95 
depending on the plan, all with a $19.95 setup. 

http://webservices.cnet.com/cgi/scompare.asp?stable=Hosting_Plans lists
tons of companies with their pricing right there on the page.

I use www.phpwebhosting.com.  9.95/month, no setup fee. The only
inconvience is that you have to specifically ask for them to turn on ssh
shell access if you want it.  However, that didn't take but a few hours
for the two accounts I have with them.
