Just in case it is useful: rfc1149.net runs on a Kimsufi machine at OVH
(France) and I'm quite happy for it. I host several domains and services.
For 29,99€+VAT (35,87€) per month, that is around $50, you have a
dedicated server with a 1.2G Celeron D, 2GB of RAM and 500GB or
disk. You have a 100MB symetric network connection with no cap. And you
can install whatever system you want (Linux, Solaris, *BSD, Windows).
It also comes with a /64 IPv6 address block, 100GB of FTP storage for
backups, a rescue system (which boots a minimal Linux system and
launches a SSH server so that you can mount your partitions, chroot and
fix a problem), and a virtual KVM (a Java applet lets you see and
interact with your bootloader -- it uses virtualization). Your
system is monitored and you get alerts if your server fails.

PS/ I am using an older offer of theirs at the same price, with 2x250GB
of disk (Linux software RAID 1) and only 1GB of RAM.
PPS/ Note that I am not a stakeholder at this company :)
