Linux he said!

I have no clue why I punish myself so badly, I am always getting lectures about how a computer works and what programes are for and what ones I should use, so the other day was no different when I mentioned to my friend that I had no clue about hosts and what the heck is linux. My friend stood there looking into my eyes and said "sit and let me tell you all about it" oh my goodnss I just wanted to shoot myself!
"So listen I will say it slowly and if you do not understand anything just stop me" right like I was going to stop him.
If you really want someone to host your site, look for someone that also does linux web hosting, Windows is Ok as a desktop in my opinion, but if you want something stable and secure, get it on a linux box or something running UNIX. They tend to stay up longer and be more resilient not to mention cheaper too as you don't have to pay a huge fat license fee to someone.
They usually can over a wider range of features too as a lot of what they run is free and open source so everything you could want is widely available to you.

I had to stop him, i was lost at the first few words, like I said, SHOOT ME, I thin I just let him take care of things for me!
