Subject:   How Critical Is It To Use an ISP Running FreeBSD or BSD/OS?

Hello,
I remember reading in The Complete FreeBSD, by Greg Lehey, that you'll
be better off with an ISP that runs FreeBSD or BSD/OS.  Can anyone
provide a scenario(s) where this would be most apparent?

I don't know what OS my ISP uses but I do know that they only support
Windows and Mac platforms.  I've run OS/2 and FreeBSD using their
email services and never really needed technical support.

Now, I'm considering a new ISP primarily due to cost.   Also,
considering obtaining my own domain name and exploring web hosting.

I assume that recommending an ISP is inappropriate but if you know of
any forums that have discussed ISPs for FreeBSD, feel free to recommend
them.

Thank you.
