I guess you could go even lower by not renting, but buying a server instead.

Not necessarily true. We run a decent amount of gear with OVH, and because if their scale and bulk discounts from OEM, our TCO is actually lower than it otherwise would be. I'm sure this isn't true at much larger scale, but I would bet it's true for most people.
