Rediscovering UNIX

In the last few days, I’ve decided that I need to get back into using UNIX again. I’ve been using Windows for too long. I started to think about this as I was doing some web design, and realized that most things I’m seeing in terms of blogging applications and such use PHP and MYSQL. I even noticed that the facebook API uses PHP5.

I’ve begun to look at dedicated server offerings, in the “bargain bin” section of well-known providers. We will see who comes out ahead. Because I also want to host all my web customers on it, it needs to have a fast connection to networks local in my area.

If you know of any dedicated server hosting companies that are reasonable, let me know.
