i don't know how proficent you are in *nix environments, but i suggest you check out a flavor of linux. For hosting you can use apache, it also comes with all the other servers you could ever need.

 Alright that does it. I will make the switch. All my friends have been urging me to do the same that you sugest. I will be magering in computer science at Tulsa University, It will be a good start and won't hurt a bit to know a little of it before hand. Thanx for the suggestions guys means a lot.PS does Apache also act as a smtp/pop3 server? |
