We started offering Ruby on Rails hosting at Planet Argon over three  
years ago. At the time fcgi was the best solution aside from pure-cgi.  
Mongrel became the better solution about a year later and we've not  
looked back. You'll find much better documentation for mongrel  
nowadays and am of the opinion that if a web hosting provider is  
offering fcgi as the default than they're three years behind the  
technology. ;)
