Linux wins on cost and performance. Manageability and reliability really get done to your skillset. Linux has greater potential in these areas but also has a steeper learning curve. Windows is more expensive and requires more horsepower (more powerful hardware) to achieve the same performance results, but it is also *easier* to administer and maintain. The administration is not as robust, but it is easier. Reliability again comes down to your skillset. If you are UNIX/LINUX savvy that is clearly the way to go, if you have stronger Windows skills, that may be your better option.
