The prices there are very competitive, and their admin panel offers a lot of flexibility. I also investigated a company called <a href="http://www.linode.com/index.cfm" rel="nofollow">Linode</a>, but I [entirely subjectively] felt a better vibe from Slicehost. I also felt obliged to check 1&1's rates, but there's absolutely 0% chance of any personal attention with their rigid structure because they do so much business - Linode and Slicehost both seem to really value flexibility though, which caught my attention. So far, their service has delivered everything to [or above] their promises, and the host (for being their smallest package) has been surprisingly strong.
