I usually take these in stride. I pay for cheap VPS, and sometimes I pay the price.

is Linode actually cheap though? I have a few boxes with a random no-name provider for 1/3 the price and so far they've haven't seen any down time..

In my experience they stay very competitive on CPU and memory and decently competitive on disk. At my scale and needs I don't know of a better vendor for the dollar.
I noticed that there were over 1k support tickets created during the Fremont outage (based on the unique ID). This is a pretty sizable customer base and must be terribly impacting to have such a prolonged outage.
Did think it was pretty funny my host had to contact their host to figure out what happened.
