Save yourself the trouble, and go dedicated.
you might be relatively right here. But I've several boxes, including shared, dedicated and VPS, all of them managed and I use them for what they're intended, and none of them (I repeat: NONE as in 0, ZERO, ZILCH, NADA) causes me problem. Including a couple $8 hostgator accounts and a $50 a year with Amerinoc.

Really, if your server can't handle a WP install with (say) 3-5k visits a day, then it's not a problem of dedicated or shared. It's just that your server sucks. Period.

Like stocktrader said, you're being argumentative just for the sake of it, and on top of that, comparing apples to oranges. If someone is using a $10 solution, could it be that he needed just a $10 solution instead of $200+? Think about it, it's not that hard. Why the hell would I pay $200 to host a site getting 50 or 100 visits a day? Or 1000? If you do so, I've a nice bridge for you, previous owner was an old lady that barely used it
