    Linux is an open source system and is therefore more cost-effective to operate and maintain than Windows, meaning that Linux hosting will cost you less than Windows hosting. Linux also has a reputation for stability and speed which means that Linux web servers will crash less often than Windows web servers and Linux runs most processes faster than Windows.

    The main "advantage" or distinction of Windows servers is that they can run Microsoft software such as Access and MS SQL databases. Windows servers also offer web developers the use of Microsoft's programming environments such as Active Server Pages (ASP), Visual Basic Scripts, MS Index Server.
    Quite right. Thanks for the info.

    I went in for windows hosting just because I thought windows was good on my desktop.

    In a matter of days I moved to linux hosting.

    Both are good and both of them have their own advantages. Windows and Linux do not differ much in their operation I believe.

    As they say linux is more secure, so i guess there might be a bit difference in their opertion too.
