My Requirements are as follows:

Windows 2000 box 1ghz
Terminal Services
Dual Tier 1 connected with lots of bandwidth
Company that has been around at least 3 years
Excellent Fast Customer Service
Uses Dell, Compaq or IBM boxes
Need to run SQL server

I'm looking at DellHost and RackSpace. Who else should I be considering?

He knows what he is doing. I know most of us here are Unix advocate, but sometimes there is no need to ask everyone "Do you really want windows?"

CrystalTech - although I am not sure what kind of boxes they use nowadays. I had a great experience with them a few years ago, the greatast support. They also offer shared SQL space, so if you don't need to much then you might not need to install it on your own box.

Skynetweb.com and Intermedia.net came across my mind. Check them out!
