I use Linux hosting because I run php/apache and mysql on my sites. I ended up choosing Linux because it has a tendency to be a little more stable, and it's the OS of my fav hosting company

Linux IS far more stable...but if you wanna serve ASP.net you're pretty much stuck using windows

Linux! It is reliable and stable. Plus, more customers prefer it over windows. To me right now, windows isn't worth having. Maybe in the future but not right now.

Linux basically for the saem reasons as above as its more stable and alot of people want the cPanel control panel which is for linux so thats the way to go

Also windows servers are expensive.

Thanks

Windows as an end-user, Linux for servers

I love Window since I'm writing with Microsft program. But Host with Windows is expensive so Better Php and Mysql in LINUX

FreeBSD as it's more stable and secure. It's also easier to patch with the ports system. FreeBSD is even older than linux.

Linus is the way to go for hosting. This is not to say that Windows is not useful for some things as well. The key to life is choosing the right tool for the job.

Well, I use both Linux and Windows because I feel both have their strong and weak points. Basically anything except gaming can be done on linux just like windows OR better.
