Linode was also one of my original choice, but the price is the same, I'm not very comfortable paying $160/mo for a 4GB VPS when OVH give me much more power for half the price.

I may be too stubborn and focalized on this provider :D

We've been using Linode - they've been great. They also have some great scripts that you can use to provision your hardware.

I use corenetworks.com for my dedicated server. Good prices, but they are UNMANAGED. You do it all, which is not a problem for me, but may be if you aren't used to running a server. They do not offer any backup services either, that's up to you as well.

I believe they are located in Michigan somewhere.

Thanks for the tip, I'm not a sysadmin but I have to in order to keep costs reasonnable (and get some new knowledge too).

$229 for a managed server is quite reasonnable, but I'm very surprised to be unable to find decent dedicated server for reasonnable price in the USA.

OVH offers a Core i5 with 8GB, 2*1TB Raid 1 drives for $80, for the same price I've got only 2GB instance in Rackspace Cloud.

Where is the OVH american counter part ? :/
