A complete Unix Newbie
I would like to know if I should install unix over a windows 98. I want to use a home computer to host websites right now, but I know how much Windows likes resources
So, my question is... Should I get a Unix OS? If no, then do not read more and just reply
If yes, then, which one? How would I go about installing it? and Are there any *good* guides on the internet to this system?
I would like to thank you for reading this post
