I'm using RapidVPS and thinking of switching to Gandi VPS because the price is cheaper and I feel that Gandi is... nicer. Anyway, put aside the system spec, is there more reasons to switch?
I have two servers with RapidVPS and just set one up here. The Debian 4 image here seems better set up, probably just a config file I've missed on the RapidVPS side, but here numpad, ins/del/home/end/pgup/pgdn, and cursor keys work properly (get all kinds of weird glitches with RapidVPS), and the console resizes properly if I resize the PuTTY window I use for SSH (On RapidVPS it wraps to the beginning of the line at 80 columns no matter what, and wraps to the same line, for that matter, no linebreak). Ping to Gandi (from Dallas, TX) is around 120-160, ping to RapidVPS ranges from 40-250 in 10 sequential pings. SSH on my Gandi host doesn't lag at all, on my RapidVPS host it sometimes lags quite a bit (type and get response 3 seconds later). This may just be because Gandi VPS service is quite new and not very populated.
