Yeah I am starting to see that, a managed server comes with apache and everything installed correct? Does an unmanaged one come with that? I would like to learn everything so one day I can run an unmanaged one.

Ok, I'll clarify a bit more on what I think I need the help with, I am mainly looking for something to guide me through the initial setup and securing the server initially. After that I can just use google but no VPS providers I could find had a setup guide in their help documents.
Ps. Thanks DAMINK™, if you do purchace a VPS with them can you PM me a site your hosting on it so I can see how much faster it's going to be than over seas hosting.
