It all depends on if it's strictly a hosting situation or not. If the ISP is hosting everything and they're UNIX and they offer no NT/2000 options, then you probably are not going to be able to have any ASP scripts.

If you host your own and the ISP is UNIX, then ,no, it doesn't matter since you can do anything on your own web server.

You just require software and install/configure it properly. Well, good ISP can also give you software for installation the web server and definitely Unix fans will not give it - you;re right here. Once I connected to such ISP. And have to configure everything by self because they even did not had any tips or guidelines on how to install and configure Windows 2000 to work through modem with their services 8) It took me 1 working day to figure out all details and experiment a lot before I first time established connection through modem :(

They should have something like "Windows 2000/NT Shared Hosting Services" or maybe where they say something about FrontPage extensions. If there's none of that, they may be a heavy UNIX/Apache ISP in which case I would look elsewhere...
