Linux, Windows 2008 or Windows 2003?

Below is the key technical points to consider before making your choice.

	Linux is ideal if you are planning on running a MySQL database driven website, online communities, small sites and PHP scripting. With Linux is an unlimited pages Professional Website Builder and Fantastico, an application installer to install selected systems like forums on the fly. Linux does not support ASP scripting or the ASP.NET framework.
	Windows Server 2008 is our recommended Windows platform. It supports ASP.net 3, silverlight compatibity, Microsoft SQL Server 2008 and unlimited SSL folder. Included is a great Application installer to enable you to setup applications in seconds and an advanced online File manager. MySQL and PHP scripting is also available on this platform.
	Windows Server 2003 is great for ASP.net 1/2 websites and has Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and MySQL. Also available is ISAPI Rewrite to help with search engine optimisation. This is clustered hosting at it's best. We have a large server cluster, which is lots of servers working together to provide greater stability and load banancing.
