I can tell you this much, not CI Host... ServerCentral is located in Equinix, just as I am, and my Equinix rep seemed quite proud of how quickly they've grown. They're somewhat pricey, last I checked, but have a pretty good network.
CI Host is riddled with internal company and policy problems.

Yes, there are some very bad rebiews of CIhost, I would say from your list ServerCentral is the best since they are located in equinix.

Server Central is what we use and they have been excellent.

Actually, Tilted owns about a dozen racks in Equinix Chicago. Check out both Tilted and SC.

Try coloquest.com in chicago. They have a very good setup with low ping times and helpful guys.

Can also try someone like interquad who simply resells in the equinox datacenter using servercentral bandwidth for a rather bit cheaper. Correct me I'm wrong on any of that but I believe they just use sc bandwdith and are a nice amount cheaper.

I'm not in a Chicago datacenter, but would recommend either Coloquest or ServerCentral.

Not an easy question to answer depending on your budget. Assuming that you have a larger size budget and doing mission critical stuff, then Servercentral has one of the better reputations, but you also have less talked about Fastroot.
Now on the lower budget and not mission critical my choice is FDC Servers.
No such thing as the “Best”, only what is best for you???

Umm... Read the forums for topics about FDC.
