Absolutely true.  I was just starting out and the difference between 
$100-$150/month and $50 a month made a big difference.
I found other places at the same price but the difference was I couldn't 
find anyone happy with those places.  Of course you do
get what you pay for.. hence horrible support.  Since its a dedicated 
server and I have full control that isn't a problem for me.
I'd much rather have machines in a rack locally where I can upgrade them 
when I need to, but for the price it fits my needs now.
