Rails - May 2006 - Good and Bad Experiences with Hosting Companies

I''m about to get hosting for an on-line shop application in the UK.
I''m
leaning towards Bytemark, as they seem to have the right product range 
and attitude. Support sound knowledgeable and helpful and they show a 
marked preference for Debian, which I happen to be fond of.

Has anyone tried them? Has anyone had good or bad experiences with other 
hosting companies they''d like to share?

Not only do they have a preference for Debian, they donate, too.  They 
also do nice deals for free software authors.  Mucho karma.

I''ve been with them since very early on, with a couple of virtual 
machines, but I''m thinking of switching to a dedicated server with
them.
Highly competent all round.
