Nocster.net should probably also be on your list.

I decided on RackShack.net because of their multiple GigE lines, and especially their (soon to be 2) Verio GigE lines.

superb.net is good! First class bandwidth with multiple DS-3 providers using BGP protocol for the best redundancy. They offer fully managed servers, co-location, clusters etc.

I voted for "others" as Superb.net is not targetted to the same market that Rackshack.net and eServers.biz is targetted to, so it's not fair to compare these 3 companies. Maybe you could have added WebReseller.net into there, instead of superb.net. But to compare superb.net to another company would be a more high market web host, such as Rackspace.com or another company who have just escaped my mind :).

EDIT: I've just noticed it says eServices.bix in the post, is this a typo? Do you mean eServers.biz?

... but just avoid all companies that start with "Rack" and end with "Shack" ... and you should be fine ;)

Or avoid competitors who obviously are jealous of RS's market share.

1) I am NOT a competitor
2) I have had a vanilla and a RaQ in a total of 1.5 years with them and administrated another 2 boxes, one since almost 2 years and the other since 6 month until both got cancelled of course. I feel I am perfectly entiled to pass judgement on them and I expressed that judgement.

WebReseller, e-servers etc are successful too and yes, of THEM maybe I am a bit jelous cause they rule AND get bigger and STILL rule! Hats off to THEM. To RS thanks but no thanks. A shame btw cause they HAVE the potential to be good but...

I have a server with RackShack and it is great if you are a capable admin.

DNS configs are fast.

Additional IPs are fast too. Server is delivered in 5 minutes!

They have also plesk and ensim systems if you are interested.

Regards.
