What operating system choices do I have?
Posted: Thu Jan 31, 2008 12:05 am
We support preloads of Gentoo Linux and Windows 2003 Server. We charge the same for either one and we strongly recommend that customers choose Windows 2003 unless they are already very familiar with Linux. We say this because there are more game server types available to run on Windows, game servers typically run better on Windows machines, and Windows is easier for a current Windows user to administrate.
If you'd like to switch operating systems after your machine is set up, you can do so for the cost of shipping the replacement hard drive, just as you could do if you needed a regular drive wipe: http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewto ... =35&t=3699
