Emacs + org-mode

Pretty sure (from the amount of mail in their mailing list) they also have > 275000 users.

THIS! I spend much less time with org keeping myself organized than one of my teammates who insists on using LeanKit kanban...I swear he spends most of his time pushing cards around an imaginary board that nobody looks at but him.

I too have been very happy with Linode.
Currently I manage about a dozen Linodes for various clients and the performance and support have exceeded my expectations by a long-shot.
On occasion when there was a minor problem, Linode support staff contacted me quickly with instructions and pointers to documentation for handling the issues.
Performance is much better than what you might expect by using the memory/disk-space metrics for each server plan.
Linode support is excellent. The Linode Library has the best documentation, they have how-to docs for most common projects and they are updated regularly and the commentary is also very helpful. And dont forget the forums - if you're having an issue or need to figure out how to do something - most likely someone has written about it in the forums. You can extract some very valuable information for troubleshooting and project planning in the forums.
And last but not least - the IRC channel is staffed by Linode support personnel and lots of really helpful volunteers. The community is awesome and friendly and helpful to-boot.
Linode's got my vote and my continued business.

dude -
No where in my post did I even mention pipes...
No where in my post do I imply that Unix admins can "adequately perform the job of a knowledgeable Windows Amin"

Still you rant on and on about off topic bullshit.
STFU.
