There are others, including a SoS review of version 2 (PDF available from Presonus), TapeOp, and others.

Reaper's commercial license is $225, btw.
I use -or have used- ProTools, Logic, Digital Performer, Tracktion, Ardour, Mixbus, Reaper, and probably a few others. Each has its strengths and weaknesses. Studio One provides a well-balanced DAW at a reasonable price (I've only purchased my copies when they've had sales, and find the MSRP a bit high, but that's a common thread with most DAWs).
For me it's been stable, has all the features I need at the moment, and is very easy to use. I had not used it in months and most of my experience has been with other DAWs. It was easy to load a project with 18 tracks and start mixing. There was no need to consult the help in order to group tracks, move them around, add AUX channels, assign tracks to different outputs, etc.
I do wish that plugins would appear in specific folders, by manufacturer or by type.

Ableton Live is still way ahead.

Craig covers recording, MIDI, mastering, and includes images, audio, and video.
During NAMM 2011 Presonus offered the Artist version for $20.11
The Artist version lacks some of the features of the Pro version, such as 3rd party plugin support, but still is a stable, powerful, easy to use DAW. It offers support for PPC which is a plus for those of us still run using PPC Macs.
Highly recommended. I think the regular price is a bit expensive, though, but thanks to their promo I'll be happy to buy an upgrade to Pro once version 2 comes out.
