I also use Linode, Linode is great, I have no complaints! They have a
forum (quite like fastmail.fm's one) where you can get help from other
users and the developer of Linode, and they use a special kernel hack to
prevent other people on the same box from monopolising the disk IO and
slowing the machine to a halt. The web interface is good.
I think I am right in saying that Linode is widely regarded as the best
UML virtual server provider (at least among Linode users!).
