I'm looking to get a host from godaddy.com.. but do i use a linux or windows host for a site with forum/news kinda junk..

I think it's windows but want to make sure first. Thanks
 
I would go with Linux unless you have some reason to go with Windows. There's generally more free/open software available for a LAMP platform than there is for Windows.
 
with godaddy you can switch when ever you want but it can take a while to switch but go with linux, leaves you open for MYSQL and PHP support.
 
Linux. More efficient use of resources. My processes on a linux server that use 20mb of ram use over 60mb or ram on windows. While this won't really affect you, you might notice it in speed.
