We're planning to use Windows Server 2008 for the University of Cincinnati grid mostly because our team is generally more comfortable with Windows server admin than Linux, so I don't have any data to contribute, just that that's the direction we're heading. <div>

Hi folks, I'm looking for some input on what you think is a better OS to run mission-critical OpenSim instances on: Windows or Linux. I currently run on Windows, but I'm starting to run mission-critical instances, and if Linux is better than I want to move to that. Any thoughts?<br>

My experience, Windows give a much smoother inworld experience then linux.<br>
Linux is free easy to handle. but because mono it can have some hicks.<br>
just use windows for short time with testing. you will always find something bad at both sides.<br>
Besides windows improved to in the years.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br>
