Linux users power of their convictions may be very impressive, but that shouldn't be the only reason to believe they're right.

Windows doesn't seem to have that many true fans or they're not that vocal.

Windows and Linux both are computer platforms (operating systems). Windows is very secure in terms of privacy and security of data while linux is robust and stable platform. You cant expect Windows to run for years without rebooting while linux can run for several years whiout rebooting.

Windows is more user friendly and they lack a bit in security.One advantage of windows hosting is that they are able to run mircosoft softwares such as Microsoft Access and SQL databases.Though Linux is an open source system it has an extremely good security which windows can't even get close insted using firewall.Basically linux hosting is cost effective but it is not user-friendly as windows and also linux hosting is not compatible with microsoft softwares.

I am currently posting this using Ubuntu Linux. I must say that Linux is much faster than Windows XP. It is also more powerful. However, it is a bit more difficult to learn.

Currently Linux Hosting is more cheap and reliable than Windows Hosting, Linux Hosting has become people choice for it's security stability and cheapness.

The main difference that I can think of is that they support different programming languages, e.g. Linux servers can run PHP while windows servers can run languages like asp and asp.net.
