Well, on this list, you'll probably get recommendations for Linux. If you 
want a recommendation for CVSNT, just ask at address@hidden :-)

But, it depends on a lot on your environment. Are you a Windows-only shop 
and expect to never use Linux (or Mac OS X, or Solaris, or many non-Unix 
type systems) for development? Then CVSNT is probably for you.

If you will use any client that runs on something other than Windows, then 
you should probably strongly consider a Linux host. There's other reasons 
to consider a Linux or other Unix-type host, but watch out for religious 
arguments when you start talking about them. [Personally, I'm of the 
Unix-type persuasion.]
