The problems people have should be tempered with the price and your 
intended use of the service - I have the *cheapest* hosting option they 
have, turned out to be about $50 for two years with a free domain 
registration. My use is for a place to dump random things, and I don't 
need 24x7, 365 access, I just need it up the few hours a month I want 
access ;^)

For a .mac replacement, dreamhost I think it's fine, but YMMV.
