I feel Linux is better... and many use Linux with apache
I feel Windows NT or other Server like 2003 advanced server is good and provides lots of functionality... and when it comes for server uptime... Linux surpass the windows counterpart... My experience says that

Yes, if you're using Apache, Linux is the way to go.

However, in terms of help and ease in troubleshooting, Windows is definitely much better. So many more people use Windows than Linux, so you've got a lot of people to ask from.

Yes thats true... you will find more members using windows than Linux but when it is about performance Linux is better server than windows NT and 2000 based Servers...

Linux is way more stable than Windows...
and only the dumbest idiot would run a server on a mac....
Windows 2003 well is ok..
But linux is probably the best way to go!

Hey mate,
I've been using Linux/Unix for the past 4 years. Within the past 2 I have used *nix only at home. I have no windows or windows applications. I have found that by using *nix as servers and even desktop machines, I have learned a tremendous amount about the net and computers in general.

Also, because of the open source nature of *nix, it's extremely easy to get advice, answers to problems. Either via web based forums such as this or irc. If you want to try a linux distro try on of the bootable versions (Knoppix, Mepis or Ubuntu). I have used most every flavor and have settled upon Mandrake for home use (easy to set up, good selection of apps) and a debian based one for my servers (such as those bootable ones listed above).

I also use freebsd as a firewall and have used it on dedicated web servers in the past.

good luck
