ubuntu

I'll definitely go for Linux OS, as it takes less resources, having more available to run your server.
Windows may be used only on very performanced hosts.

I prefer windows, but it's more your're choice.

Windows is not that suitable for game servers. Go with Linux, save money and have better performance over Windows

"Only". Geez, dude. You can run a small to medium sized server on a single core and 256MB RAM. Only the ignorant choose Windows. It eats resources, it's less secure and you have to pay license costs.

Pay license costs only if you're needing one on a dedicated server only, yup?

Using Linux is indeed the best option to run all kinds of servers, including SA-MP.
