I use dreamhost as an easy way to get wikis/svn/other goodies running.
Svn with web access is especially nice, still haven't figured out how
to install this on my "real" server (at linode).
However, for actual catalyst websites, I have a virtual server at
linode.com, where I have a root account for less than $20/month.
However, I think you will get people telling you that it is possible,
they do it all the time for their clients, etc. So maybe I'm just an
install wuss.
But... my experience was definitely better with a virtual root server.
*nods* I prefer having a virtual (root) server (or even a proper colo'ed
machine) too, but it all depends on budget and maintenance time.
I'm wanting to migrate a small community application I run (and
resurrect another older one) away from my ADSL, along with my email and
domains.. but don't really see the need to spend more money for a
virtual server that'll require more time to maintain.
That's the theory.. maybe I should stop being a cheaparse and just spend
more though.. I admin quite a lot of production servers, and losing that
full control will probably make me all twitchy, even if only for a
little community site. :)

I would stay away from Dreamhost personally. Regardless of what they
happen to support, I've had numerous performance + uptime issues with

You might look into slicehost. It's a little more expensive, but you
essentially get your own machine (via Xen VPS), allowing you install and
run whatever you want on it.
