I recommend http://www.slicehost.com/ I was blown away by the simplicity and power of their service. All the benefits of your own box with far less hassle and only $20pm starting fee. Loads of really good documentation on getting a production RoR environment up and running too. They're probably the best bet for bootstrapers and students.

We use slicehost too for our web app. Even if most of their customers appear to use RoR, we didn't have any issue in setting up Apache and MySql and getting our Java/Tomcat/Struts/Hibernate web application up & running even on a VPS with 256MB of Ram.

Checked out the rest and Slicehost seems to appeal to me the most. I love their pricing plan! very simple and straight forward. Though how do they compare to RailsMachine etc. in terms of scaling Rails apps?
