I'm currently with JohnCompanies. Overall, it's been a positive experience, though I wish they offered FreeBSD 7. Beta testing for it was supposed to begin last month, but so far no news. My main concern is disk space; I have 2GB for ~$26 per month. For the same price at RootBSD you could get almost eight times as much. The question is how reliable are they? I can't find any information on their site about where the data center is or the exact system specifications. - Max
