After spending 4 days trying to get ASP to work on Microsoft's Personal Webserver, I made the plunge and purchased a Linux box from Penguin Computing. Although the learning curve is a little higher, the switch to Linux is the smart Move. Linux puts you in control
Most people make the switch to Linux by installing installing Linux on an old computer. You know, that old computer that is slow running Windows is fast running Linux. When you are ready to move into professional grade computing, you will want a box built from the ground up for Linux.
Penguin is one of the leaders in this market. They build Linux boxes from the ground up. Their main market is building Linux Servers. It is a good place to find boxes designed for rack mounting in a server farm. Since Penguin does not have to pay licensing fees to Microsoft, they are able to concentrate on quality...not just quantity. It is a great store for hardware afficiandos.
