In a previous life a charity I worked for had their websites etc with Rackspace, on a dedicated server and paid handsomely for it.
Rackspace, continually, asked if I wanted to move to the cloud. It'd be cheaper etc. I declined every time. When I left under bad terms, I think my assistant/back stabber continued that process. And I'm happy to report that right now, while the Rackspace Cloud is crashing and burning, the charity's websites are still up and going strong.
Pity.
