Linux or windows?

[Fellow]

Linux is good as is Windows, you also have to take into consideration what it is you intend to do with it all. Windows often runs into additional expense as licensed software is required for the most part. There are good reasons to choose either but often Linux is preferred due to being least expensive and having nice options as well.

What do you prefer to resell? Windows or linux?
Of course you say linux, but if you would like to resell windows what move you to start reselling windows web hosting services?
Many thanks for you

Cheers

Windows is only valuable as a niche. It is more pain in your ace that it is worth.

I sold both at one point and found Linux outsold Win hosting 5-6 to 1 or so. Not worth it, IMHO.

Both have their own importance but that depends on you that you are good in which one. No doubt Linux is easy but if you are good to manage windows then its also good. If you are looking for shared hosting then I can suggest <<URL snipped>>

I would always say Lunix. It is the first kind that I messed with and I learned all about it.

 

[thewebhostingdi]

I would prefer Linux because of its security reasons. Linux is also cheap than windows hosting.

It depends on your website / applications platforms which your choose to use.
If you choose ASP.NET scripts and SQL Server database to develop your applications, then you have to choose Windows hosting plans. While, Linux hosting plan are suitable for PHP, mySQL and Ruby on rails scripts based website.

Linux for sure

 

[Reliable-Hosts]

Both have different purposes but I would say in general....Linux

 

[hostatree]

What will you be using it for? I favor linux any day of the week. Its a lot more secure and less resource intensive.

The choice of operating system depends on the software applications you want to run in your server. Linux is widely used but now windows is also gaining popularity.You can check out Diadem Technologies , provide reliable hosting with a multitude of hosting solutions in both windows and linux.

Hi, i think one should resell both of-course.

I sell both as the first reason is that its good for business to give options and the second reason is that i am comfortable with both Windows and Linux.

[whwrobert]

Both are stand in their own places.Depend on the owner's choice.

 

[Nexpoint]

unless you need asp or asp.net, i would go with linux

 

[marissa jasmine]

Linux and Windows have a different...
If Linux used PHP for programming language, but Windows use ASP.NET

 

[thewebhostingdi]

Windows & Linux both have their own pros & cons. Ultimately everything is depend on user's choice & his requirements. If you wish to use Microsoft technologies then Windows is best. If you wish to avoid license issue then Linux is best.
