VPS’s can be quickly rebuilt, backed up or restored. They are perfect to learn administration, or perfect for those individuals who are writing software. You can install a compiler and write your own software, which is important in some cases where custom cgi’s are used.
Many of our clients run game servers, which isn’t cost effective at all since they don’t resell them, they simply want to have fun with their friends. A VPS is perfect for this.
I think conceptually a VPS is a small server that is very easy to manage and tends to be more reliable than a small dedicated box.
Automated installs, backups and restore operations ensure you can’t screw it up beyond repair - an important feature for those tinkering.
