3) What processor offers the most services? (what types of cards etc and what languages they support)
4) What processor has their join pages up and workng the most? (another crazy question, but if you poll each processors join pages from around the world like we do, you would be surprised with the results)
and
5) How hard is it to integrate the processors systems into your sites? (take my word for it, some processors are plain painful)
Now this isnt the entire list, but it is a good start 
BTW - I obviuosly disagree with gothweb on the multiple processor point, and I wholly agree with what KK said. YOu need more than one processor guys, even if its just in case one of them goes broke

I beleive that 2 processors is the way to go. Find the one that helps you keep the most $ at the end of the month and use the 2nd best processor to back-up the first.
And... I love bullet points. Here we go:
1) I would love to know this myself. Each processor has their strengths and weaknesses. I would say you can't go wrong using Epoch and CCBill. MPA2 can help show you the way.
2) Research the threads and you will find out that Epoch has always promoted long term business against short term gains. The strongest IPSP's in terms of features, thru-put, and service are Epoch and CCBill. No question about it.
3) I can't speak for other processors, but, if you want to see what Epoch has to offer your biz check out
http://www.epochsystems.com/sales/ . If you don't see what you need... ask.
4) Epoch has done everything imaginable to insure optimum up-time. We have guys that once worked for NASA and Visa as part of our team. Uptime is not just a WM concern. An IPSP makes $ when you do. Uptime is mandatory. Epoch is available by phone and email 24/7/365.
5) We can be as simple or as complex as you want. Use our standard join-forms and all you need is a simple link. Have specific needs? Ask about FlexPost and tell your programmer what you need.
