This is a basic
comparison of features supported by Linux and Windows 2000. We recommend
Linux for sites that are mostly HTML and/or CGI scripts. For sites with
databases, ASP coding or if you use Frontpage to publish your site, you
must use the Windows platform.
Be aware that
although CGI scripts are supported on both platforms some of the
syntax's may be slightly different. Ensure before signing up that your
CGI scripts will support the platform you choose.
