I have been using slicehost for only about a month and have to say I am very happy. I find the control panel to be great too, very simple and to the point. Yesterday I resized the size from 256 to 512 and was really impressed at how well it went. Took all of about 15 minutes, with about 3 minutes (or less I was not paying much attention) of downtime. It seems to me that either service is good enough that once people pick one they just stick with it.
