online.net. Very cheap dedi servers, very happy with them. I have used Linode before, a little pricey, but support was outstanding.

I'm using an EDIS[1] KVM and am quite happy with their small offering (I don't really need a whole lot of disk space). Speed is good, reliability/uptime is good, support is quick and friendly, and they have good locations all over Europe (I'm using the Frankfurt/Germany DC).

Servint has been excellent for me, as a MediaTemple and GoDaddy exile. www.servint.com

If you are looking at the other extreme - i.e extremely cheap VPS - check out http://lowendbox.com/ - you can get some pretty decent ones for $10 a year

DigitalOcean. We moved from Rackspace, we pay half the price and get double the performance. I still miss private networks and additional storage, but everything else is great.

DigitalOcean has private networks now, no?

Other: SegPub.

I do not recommend them. I can't get in touch via ticket, twitter, email, phone, and they let my domains expire while charging for them.

Digital Ocean has one private network shared amongst all of it's customers.

I believe that you can have a software defined network private to only your servers with Rackspace.
