Shared hosting prices seem reasonable.
Reseller hosting packages are strange - nobody is going to resell from a limit of 2GB space to 5GB bandwidth ratio. As a set package to offer, my opinion is "bandwidth limit = 20 X disk space limit" IE: 5GB Space with 100GB Bandwidth, or 2GB Space with 40GB Bandwidth.

Maybe a new site and explain what u offer.
Hire staff, --------- started the same week or month as u we got few clients.
Try to sponser php coders with big ideas they can get clients and just post every where.

That is much better now in my opinion.
Just one more thing - the highest shared plan in proportion to the lowest reseller plans don't really add up for me.
Think like this - the price of reseller package must higher, than the equivalent resourced shared package.
Resellers are usually guaranteed to use a higher percentage of its resources, (divided into multiple accounts rather than one) and there is the extra WHM feature. So really price should be higher for resellers than for the shared.
Higher your reseller prices or give more for their money for your higher end shared clients. But that is only my opinion at the end of the day.

Your servers are located in SAVVIS. Simple copy and paste job from LT. Maybe not just offer RedHatEnterprise as that is a $27 license.
If you are on the reseller program like myself you get monthly newsletter with really good offers, also you get the monthly deductions.
Try Offering as your sempron:
# AMD Sempron 2600
# 80GB IDE Hard Drive
# 512MB DDR RAM
# Bandwidth: 1000GB
# IP Addresses: 8 (5 usable)
# Private VLAN
# Basic Resource Monitoring
# FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Linux, Windows*
# 100% Self Managed and Dedicated
CentOS
$75 monthly | $20 Setup Fee
Then say a special - LT now offer RVSkins for $28 so say to the customer "$25 for CPanel/Fantastico and we'll give you RVSkins free on your account"
Then you are still making $8 profit if not more if your on the reseller program. I use CentOS on all my servers and it seems the most stable.

Oh another thing. Your P4 2.8GHz;
I just purchased a P4 3.4GHz HT CentOS Cpanel/Fantastico/RVSkins for less than what you are selling the P4 2.8 for and I got my server from same place you get yours. Try scrapping the OS and get incentives. You may start with slow profit but things will pick up

IMO the AMD Sempron seems like the best deal but the price should be a little lower than what it is.
