My preference is
Ubuntu, but I've not noticed any price differences over other Linux
OS's.
Here are some examples of costs by operating system:
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11: $0.03 to $0.30/hr incl EC2 charges + other
AWS usage fees
Amazon Linux AMI (64-bit): $0.02 to $3.82/hr incl EC2 charges + other AWS
usage fees
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 Base: $0.02 to $0.285/hr incl EC2 charges +
other AWS usage fees
Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS: $0.00/hr for software + AWS usage fees
Yes, there are two Enterprise versions of Linux (Suse & Redhat) that are
higher priced, and of course Windows, but aside from those, all AWS fees
are based on options of all the instance types regarding CPU, memory,
and network speed.
You can even create your own image with your choice of OS - there are a
few tutorials for doing that scattered around the internet.

One little "gotchya" for me was the server address - you can use
the public DNS address...
Are you saying that we can't use the domain name when running OpenSim on
Amazon EC2? If so, that's a huge gotcha for me.
Oh no! Sorry, I was referring only to the Amazon public DNS address, not
to assigning your own domain to your server.
