If you have very good backups, and reinstalling the OS on a new disk is
part of their service, you can get by. Note that most of the US ones do
not sell or lease the server to you - they rent it, it's theirs. If a
disk dies, they should take care of that. How and when exactly is part
of the service agreement and the quality of their support, which seems
to vary a lot (by googling, not personal experience so far).

theplanet.com - starting at $70
serverpronto.com - starting at $30
Both become more expensive as you want options beyond the basic,
sometimes much more expensive.
Both have mixed reviews re support etc.

theplanet.com's site causes my firefox (with flashplayer 7) to use all
cpu so I do not like it :-( but it might not be a good enough reason.
