The reason I like VPS.net is that I can do everything I want (like amazon and any other vps) but up to a point I can scale it but moving a slider on the screen (and they will move everything to a bigger/ faster instance) and it takes about one minute. On Amazon any operation takes 20-30 minutes to complete.
