Because it turns you into a sysadmin instead of letting specialists handle all the OS stuff so you can concentrate on your application. Also, no VPS where you have to run your own httpd instance (and usually your own database if you're using one) can possibly be as cheap as a virtual host where you're sharing the same httpd with thousands of other sites. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
