To all the Linode recommenders: If localization were not critical, which data center would you choose? I know enough from recent news to stay away from Freemont (IIRC), California. What about Texas versus Georgia versus, I seem to recall, one on the East Coast in the neighborhood of New Jersey.

I'm focusing on the U.S. If there's an argument for using one of their overseas centers, though, I'd be interested in hearing it.

Thanks. I'm in a similar position of maybe about to give Linode a go.
