Gandi in France (http://www.gandi.net) offers Debian Xen hosting
starting at $14/mo. I tried them for a while but the server was

Basicly, if you are looking for VPS. go for XEN based VPS because it is
better.
Not in all cases. See http://vpslink.com/compare/openvz-vs-xen-vps-hosting/
You need VPS with at least 256MB dedicated memory.
Not necessarily. I would start off with a

is a closer price point.
