wouldn't an offshore server be better and safer?

Wouldn't a dedi be a best choice? Quad core, 4GB ram ?

Ram makes usually more difference then a faster CPU.
though important to remember is that a computer consists out of a chain of hardware.
Your computer is only as strong as it's weakest link....
for SEO purposes VPS is probably better.

Check XSServer.eu
Is the 15/mo plan even sufficient to run more then 1 instance of scrapebox? 256mb rams seems a bit on the low side...
I just bought this pc http://www.ecost.com/prod/Systems/D...01e+-+PTGAY0205/70791531.aspx?navid=155442295
6GB ram and 1TB Hdd the other specs are sick...probably gonna expand it to 8GB.

At the moment I am with the 35$ plan. It works perfect although it can't possibly get the maximum of scrapebox. But it's good for usual usage. Some adjustments to the settings and you can use it perfectly

I agree with accelerator_dd. I tried the $25/month plan - it could handle basic tasks and small blasts, but the 512mb of RAM just wasn't sufficient for blasts of 1million URLs. The $35/month plan is very popular here, and it handles one instance and mosts task very well.

You'd be bottle-necking on the internet connection with scrapebox with a dedicated desktop. If it gives you a better idea; I have an overclocked quad core, 8 gig ddr3 ram, raid 0, etc monstrosity and Scrapebox runs only slightly better than on my non-special "gaming" laptop.
If you do go the desktop route I would suggest a cheap (Possibly-overclocked) AMD quad core.. The reason behind this is you can leverage the extra cores and run a bunch of VirtualBox OSes for those apps that require "Full screen, front and center privileges" without gimping things.
....and you can just minimize (or toss on another monitor) the virtual OS and go about your normal everyday usage without interrupting the running program. Ram plays a big factor as well since you are essentially dividing up system resources with this setup. Just my 2c, if you don't take the VPS route. I do this on one of my machines.
