Digital Ocean looks interesting. But if you want a dedicated box check out Hetzner.de. 49Euros/month gets you a i7 Quad core beast with 16GB RAM and 2x3TB HDDs.

Moving from Linode (20$/month plan for 512MB ram) gave me something like 30x capacity increase for only about 2.5x price increase. Mind blowing.

Agree. Dedicated servers are getting cheaper and cheaper. I'm running a box at Incero (http://www.incero.com) for $121/month that's decked out, with quad-core Xeon, 16GB RAM, SSD, and unmetered bandwidth. It's really a different world of performance for a relatively modest price increase from my former VPS ($80/mo, for a 2GB Linode).

I have a server with Hetzner, it's amazing. I drool every time I log on.
