All very good points. There are a few sites that I’ve registered at in order to comment, but they are few and far between. Nice post. All very good points.

Their administration panel is just amazing. Specially for people who have never hosted anything online before. What i like about them is that they provide you a flexible level of details and control based on your knowledge and administration skills. This is pretty awesome. However, their downside is that for memory/CPU intensive web apps (such as RoR) you are kinda out of luck because shared hosting really doesn't scale up in such cases. Fortunately DreamHost did introduce VPS hosting ... so we'll see how that turns out. I think you should also add SliceHost to your list above. They have really awesome and affordable VPS hosting that you can scale up and down very easily. I honestly was very pleased using them. DreamHost is an amazing company.
