I need some advice with dedicated hosting. basicely i have no experience with it and mostly all the OS have never used. The offer i get put several OS options. I am used to Windows XP, never worked on anything else...So which one would you advise me to use ?
FreeBDS
OpenBDS
Linux
Windows 2k3 web +20$
Windows 2k3 standard +30$
The plan is a selfmanage one, that means i am the administrator. I will have to install imagemagik,tmda.cgi . As for their support, it's seems to be 50$/h per incident :

So i am interest, it is just that i don't know in what i am going to plundge into, since i don't have any experience otherwise than with dealing with MYSQL and some cgi installation. The rest is blank to me...
I don't want to pay for a world of pain. The galleries will be fine, but when it comes of setting up everything for the TGPs and the server security...
Please don't spam me with host if it's not better than layeredtech prices and services...
