My one complaint with DigitalOcean is that I had a dev server setup and I was snapshoting it and destroying it when not in use then recreating it from the snapshot when I needed it. A few weeks ago they had a failure of some sort and my snapshot was lost. It took me a fairly long time to setup the dev environment so I was a bit pissed.

Have your setup for your dev environment under version control. I do this with Linode stackscripts, and I couldn't live without it. Unfortunately DigitalOcean don't support stackscripts as of yet. And their support didn't want to tell me if they will ever support it.
