That is no longer true. Rackspace's managed hosting is absurdly overpriced, but you can't compare their Cloud Server services to a crappy VPS and it competes directly with Amazon's AWS at the enterprise level. For people trying to get the most bang for their buck, AWS and Rackspace both offer the most cost-effective solutions, so long as you have some administrative experience.
You do realize that most of the VPS's out there are just reselling scaled-down AWS and Rackspace services, right?
