I have all my domains with Dotster. They're a little expensive, and over the years their site has gotten spammier looking (always have to say no to the add-ons when buying a domain, no I do not need shitty hosting), but I first signed up with them in all the way back in 2000, and like the article says - the lockin is pretty high. All my domains are on auto-renew on my credit card, and I only login to their site maybe about once a year?
Never had any noticeable outages or anything with them, but I don't have any big sites either, just personal stuff. I've never had to contact their customer support, so I don't know if it's good or bad. Occasionally I think about switching to someplace a few dollars cheaper, but most of the registrars that don't have reputations for horrible customer support tend to be near the same price ($15ish/year) so I haven't bothered.
