It's true... even though our servers are running windows, the only reason is that our apps need sql server. If I were to start fresh, I would design something that's linux compatible.
We have several servers with crystaltech, and when we decided to add capacity and load balancing, they lost us, because a. they didn't support linux which we used for our dedicated mail server and b. they didn't support hardware load balancing which HMS threw in for free. I had asked crystaltech whether they do linux hosting, but only because I was already a customer and didn't want to leave if possible. If I was a new customer, I would've just looked at the website, seen that they don't offer linux hosting and let my fingers do the walking...

There is a very good reason for that. You have a website. And from your website it is obvious you don't do Linux. I heard about you guys from someone a couple of weeks ago and went and checked your site. When I didn't see Linux, I went away. So very literally you lost me as a customer. I'm sure you guys are all very cool guys, and I'm sure your service is top notch, etc. But I don't do Windows web hosting, and there are millions of others like me according to the surveys/stats I've seen. But it's your choice, if you don't want to offer Linux hosting, that's fine. You'll still have a successful business, and people like me will be just as happy with our Linux hosts. ------------- This transmission may contain information that is privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
