A received two replies from people who were happy with GoDaddy.  Both
mentioned the low cost.  I found they were indeed the least expensive,
by far, of the seven vendors I looked at.

In the end, I used  DigiCert for the certificates for the following reasons.
  1.) We've used them before and we were happy with process.
  2.) They were the second least expensive vendor
  3.)  Corporate image is important to us and I really didn't want to
associate our site with GoDaddy.  I realize few users would notice
this but it's not worth saving the few dollars for the cost of the
cert.  (FWIW, I still use GoDaddy for personal and friends DNS
registrations.)
