I currently run a Linode 360 that hosts my personal Wordpress Blog, a
postfix server, an OpenVPN server, and a handful of other small
utilities.  It does quite well.  (Running Apache/mod_php/MySQL 5 on
Ubuntu 9.10 x86_64).  Two of my coworkers also have Linodes that they
use for personal use/experimentation, and one offsites some of his
backups to his Linodes.

Free on my Linode:
$ free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:           343        326         16          0         32        148
-/+ buffers/cache:        145        198
Swap:          255         26        229

I'd be happy to provide any other information/stats from my Linode.
