Unix.
Badoomboom-Crash! *roaring laughter*
But, seriously folks....
I've heard that Linux can have more of a tendency to fold-up-and-die
under extremely high loads, and that on *BSD this behavior is much less
pronounced - but I've personally never seen it, and use Linux exclusively.
You really should look through the archives - I've seen platform
specific problems on the list, but not many.
It really comes down to how much you're willing to spend on hardware,
then what OS supports your hardware the best, what you want in the
way of support, etc...
