Default Is [url=http://www.eukhost.com/vps-hosting.php]VPS Hosting[/url] for me?

I am in the process of launching a new website hosting, and expect to have it up and running in the next few weeks.

The web site hosting is currently being tested and demo'd on a shared hosting account.

Although initial uptake of the web site hosting (flash front end + MySQL Server backend) may be very little, there are two considerations:

1. Yeah, I know 100% isnt possible to guarantee, but if its unavailable for any length of time will destroy my business. It must be fast, responsive and available.

2. Numbers may grow significantly over time. Lets say we start off with maximum 50 concurrent users at any one time; but this may grow to 500 over the next few months.

I dont want to run the risk of some fool running a cpu intensive php script on shared hosting that bogs down the whole server

Is VPS Hosting the right tool for me?
