I don't use them myself, but have done some work on an account there and was impressed by what I saw in general -- an up-to-date kernel version, notably. I was told good things about the community surrounding he.net, which reminded me of the WELL for some reason...
I don't know exactly what you want in a "VPS", whether strict virtual or virtualized to some satisfying degree, but for me including SSH and having my own root FS map is enough for my personal hosting needs. In the CMS communities like slashcode/*nuke/etc, I've seen many adverts for really cheap hosting, some including SSH access for under $10/month, from companies outside of the U.S. (one I saw was in Australia).
HTH,

I was wondering if anyone had any experience with VPS providers; preferrably with Open/Freebsd instances but Debian or FCore are fine. I've worked with JohnCompanies before but I was shopping around for a slightly better deal than $65 a month since this is for a low-bandwidth, small footprint project.
Redwood Virtual ( http://www.redwoodvirtual.com/ ) and Linode ( http://www.linode.com/ ) seem to be widely mentioned and recommended. Any caveats with them? Anyone better offering BSD instances?
