I used to use SuSe on my PC, but then returned to Windows. Now I'm working on Mac and don't even think to go back to Windows. When it comes to enterprise solutions (web hosting, IT data management and etc.) I would say I'm OK with CentOS (I used Fedora Core... before). Windows increases the costs of producing web services and to maintain any kind of IT frameworks. The only thing that is probably cheaper for small businesseses is their new Hyper-V hypervisor that we can use as a Windows based virtualization technology. But if you want a full power you still have to purchase Windows Server 2008 (check this comparison - http://www.vpshostingdir.com/2009/02...gainst-vmware/).

So I vote for Linux
