Ehh, Linux is by far better to host on. Security, performance and userfriendlyness is way better.

I would say that windows is more userfriendly than linux...

I voted on windows becasue i dont understand anything of linsux.

So you should not vote at all.

Is windows 7 good for hosting :O?

Most probably not. It is for sure worse to host on than linux.

I used windows before because i was gaming a lot
But the last years i don't "Game" anymore, so installed linux last week not that many problems so far

Gaming = Windows
Security, performace, hosting = Linux

OpenGL performance is way better on Linux then on Windows. So Linux would be better for gaming then Windows had just everyone used OpenGL instead of DicrectX and made native Linux binaries.

Linux is often used to make professional 3D stuff, Maya is avaible here, and if you just need a free alternative, try blender.

And WoW still runs better on Linux then on Windows ( about 105-110% the performance.)

I'm a great fan of the call of duty series (mainly modern warfare 1 + 2) but they don't run on linux (MW 1 should but I couldn't get it working).
There for I still use windows.
For the rest, Linux (under dualboot).
