Aren't there a bunch of offers of free cloud hosting for Startups? We should list them here.

And you don't need to be a YC company......

Microsoft Azure gives hosting to startups under their Bizspark program - get over your prejudice - it's a great way to run Linux machines.

Softlayer and Rackspace I think also have programs for startups.

Any other companies offer free hosting to startups?
