I had cause today to look into Rails VPS hosting services. I came across the Nuby on Rails article with a ton of comments which serve to validate and clarify various points. More searching turned up similar reviews. There is even a Rails-specific hosting info site.
Slicehost appears to be the best choice for my needs (a small, mainly static Rails app). The minimum plan is $20/mo for 256MB RAM, 10GB space, 100GB bandwidth. This is all way more than I actually need.
I'm trying to understand the hosting options before I get going on my development effort. I'd like for my dev setup to be as close as possible to my deployed/hosted setup. I'll be using VMWare on my MacBook Pro for this purpose. (I'm not going to be fussing with IronRuby for this project.)
