Windows Or Linux Hosting?

[seek1]

Hi All,
We are conducting a survey and we want to find out what Web Masters/Web Developers/Designers prefer to use for
their hosting. Do they prefer Windows Hosting or Linux Hosting?

If the Web pages are designed in HTML and you find a Windows and a Linux Host offering their services for the same price (considering the competition in the hosting industry these days). Which one will you choose?

Please share your views.

I run linux on my servers. It is the only platform I have ever used on my webservers, and the only one I ever will use.

Linux, it's the easiest for servers, and of course free. Seems to be the most stable server software.

i run both as some users want asp and asp.net

Definitely Linux. The only other option I would consider is Mac OS X Server based hosting, but the cost doesn't really justify it for general use. I'd definitely never use Windows based hosting unless for some reason I had to use ASP. :)

Linux. Stable, Secure and Open Source. Period.
