I was weighing the advantage of having linux in the production server versus windows.
If there isn't much difference I'd like to get a dedicated server for Exponential in WIndows, because that
way more people can administer it. Is there a significant advantage of using Linux as opposed to Windows?

Neeraj, for maximum stability and performance we recommend using LAMP (Linux+Apache+MySQL+PHP) environment. Exponential is PHP base application, which better (stable and faster) feels in Linux environment.

On windows platform eAccelerator works very good.
