From: FearNo1 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: NT versus Unix webhost.... I am looking to upgrade webhosts. I was wondering, which is better (ie more stable, faster (when using same machine, bandwidth, etc), more powerful...NT or unix host? So far it seems that NT hosts cost about 15% more than their unix counterparts...is there a reason why? What benefits does a NT host have over unix and vice versa? Correct me if I am wrong but NT host supports ASP, javascript, VB script, etc server side processing whereas unix hosts dont...right? And if ASP is used, then even VB script can be used on netscape (IE natively supports VB script but not netscape)..since ASP is server side..rite? Now what advantages does linux host have NT? With either host, I can use any windows based (ie wsFTP) FTP software to upload/dload files to the site...rite? Please reply directly in addition to the list...thanx alot! BTW, cnet ranked the top webhosts: http://webhostlist.internetlist.com/screens/toplists/top5.asp ******************************************************* The RealForum is an email discussion group focused on using RealNetworks products.
