I would reccommend http://www.linode.com/ if you're in the US

Otherwise pick a local similar provider (like ours (
http://ld.net.au/products/vps for Australia)), just try and get something
thats not contended (i.e. they don't run virtuozzo or vmware with ballooning
on the backend)

Amazon is also quite good but their disk is way slower than Linodes:
