Even less neat if some malicious group can then buy the lapsed domain and forward all those dead links to ads and viruses.
Please host responsibly, is all I’m saying.
Don’t say Linux then. If they already barely know windows, that’s an ideal situation, it’s going to be similarly confusing either way.
If your concern is that you think they would run into more stability issues when using a linux-based OS vs Windows, that’s a reasonable concern. But if we’re comparing against a sufficiently stable distro release, I don’t think it’s well founded.
