Which server: Windows or Unix/Linux?

[nanosafeguard]

I currently have my hosting with Godaddy. They offer me either Windows or Linux server. Which is best for Zen Cart?

linux is the only way to go,

however if you search around these forums there are issues doing certain things like use payment gateways and shipping modules with godaddy unless you upgrade to their vurtual servers solution

OK interesting. Anyone out there, who have actually made it work without having to change to a substantially more expensive virtual server solution?
