	Main difference is the fact that one is Windows (well NT usually) and the other is Linux. Noticeable difference not a great deal, just the fact that linux is cheaper and for what you need, i would got with a linux box :) edit - draw, what if you need ASP or .net? linux doesn't natively support asp (chilli is a bit bodged), so you would need a windows box then.

	Linux allows for more server side applications to be run, but I dont think supports frontpage extensions.. Id go with linux over windows everytime.

They obviously do other packages and as there quite small they will do any package you want if you contact them. Customer service is tops too, usually get a response within an hr or so :)

	in english please rob? I dont know the difference between a bandwith and jigabite :lol:

	www.i-websolutions.co.uk 16 quid a year gets you 100mb space and 2GB of bandwidth a month, which is a bargin for uk hosted sites. :) btw, when choosing a host remember there is not such thing as unlimited bandwidth, its a con and you will get screwed somewhere for it! [Edited on 11-03-2007 by Dom]
