people on GFY either hate them or have no problems with them.

at this point it is just everyone's personal experience and personal preference. when it boils down to it, RS is great for non-critical sites when you know what you're doing technically. if you need critical uptime and data integrity pay for it somewhere else (although i have my RS box doing incremental offsite backups to my home network every six hours, just in case of hardware failure or any other unforseen issues.)

i'd say they're a great place to grow and move on to a little more specialized/premium hosting later on. even if i move i'll probably keep the 10mbit box though (unless i get my own cogent 100mbit shit..) because bandwidth that cheap is nice to have, and i'm not paying premium bandwidth prices for wankers to eat it for $.50-$1 per gig.
