>If you want to "do something with VFP", you'll need it to exist on an OS that can support VFP. That kinda says NT. What kind of application are you running? Is it just static pages, or asp talking to a COM object, or Web Connection or something similar? If you want to do a Web Connection type system, you're going to want your application isolated on your own box. That means co-locating it or leasing a server. It costs a lot more, but if you are doing anything significant with it, you need the security/stability/peace of mind it offers.

I don't know where I'm going yet :) We have secure web servers at work already (BLS data) - this is only for personal use, and I don't know just what I will want to do down the road. But I will stick with NT, definitely, at least that sounds like the right direction.
