Not to answer for the OP but I'm both a Linode and Hetzner customer. The Hetzner machine has been solid and their network is great. But.. I keep the most important stuff on Linode because if a piece of hardware in the Hetzner machine blows up, I could be off the air for $indeterminate_time whereas with Linode, the worst case is I fire up another Linode within 5 minutes and reload from a backup.
Thanks for answering. In my case, I'm looking more at the Hetzner VPS offering, because it's in the same price range and has better specs than the equivalent Linode.
