| Linux vs Windows |
| Linux |
|
Linux is one of the more popular operating systems on the Internet, mostly
because of the lower cost to setup and maintain. This enables us to offer a
lower cost on comparable windows hosting plans. |
Linux Advantages: |
|
Cheaper hosting fees
|
|
More disk space and bandwidth
|
|
About 40 easy to install free programs and scripts available
|
One of the biggest misconceptions is that you have to run Linux on
your local computer in order for you to host your website on a
Linux platform. Which operating system you run on your computer
is irrelevant to what you need for your website. This means, if you
are running Windows 98, Windows XP, Windows® 2000 or using an Apple Macintosh,
you can still choose Linux or Windows as your hosting platform. |
Windows |
|
Windows is another popular operating system because it supports
most of Microsoft's software products such as Microsoft FrontPage and
Microsoft Office. Windows based web sites are typically the choice for
new webmasters as there is sometimes less "hands on" programming required
to get everything working |
Windows Advantages: |
|
Supports ASP Programming, MS-SQL 2000, MS-Access databases
|
|
All features of FrontPage can be used including ASP and database generated pages.
Linux also support frontpage extensions but without ASP and Access database generated pages.
|
Please go through the various features availble for linux or windows and
you can decide which one you need. |
If you are still unsure of which hosting to select then our suggesition is
if you want use microsoft specific features such as ASP, MS-SQL 2000 MS-Access database
use windows hosting otherwise use linux hosting |
