Are my prices reasonable?      
EDIT: I know, there are only 2 things there. I need to know if there is a market first...

Your prices are decent, but whats with the port 8000 thing? You running your server off of one of those ISP's that doesnt allow webservers?

Chooco:
having a high port like that is so that Apache does not have to be run as root, it's a security thing.

for port 80 to be opened, Apache must be run by root.

voidmain:
Only the initial Apache process must be executed with root privelages. The children that Apache spawns are usually executed under user "apache" or "nobody". Those children are the processes that outside connections actually access.

So if apache were to be exploited the exploit will be executed under the "apache" userID which *should* be configured with minimal privelages. Usually nothing should be writable by that ID except for quarantined working directories.
