Does anyone know which providers currently offer windows VPS accounts.
A few have it 'planned' but only two seem to offer it, and I couldn't sign up with either of them for various reasons.
Thanks alot

We have not had any major problems with Windows based VPS's.
We did some pretty heavy testing on the VZ software.

Yes, Virtuozzo just recently released VPS software to work on Windows servers. I know that Burst is offering them (https://www.burst.net/vps.shtml), but I haven't gotten around to testing that out - still testing my trusty linux VPS :) I'd imagine that Windows VPS with Virtuozzo would be pretty stable (or they wouldn't release it to the public).

It's not until someone fully tested V on Win, then we can say it's stable for real biz. Currently, there is only one solid and stable solution called VMWare ESX, but it's not for everyone.

We're running dozens of Windows VPS for clients.
Since VZ Windows Release 2, we have not had any major issues.

"major issues"
I would like to hear what are the "minor issues" then. :)

I have a question...
Can a windows VPS be used as a game server?!? i mean , can i install unreal tournament server on windows VPS? (assume that the VPS have enough resources)
Can i install application at all on windows vps? is it EXACTLY just like windows dedicated server just weaker?

While browsing through SWsoft website days ago, I came across that they already have some game server listed. Well I managed to find that page again.. Game Server (http://www.sw-soft.com/en/products/hspcomplete/templates/apps/#gameservers)
I suppose if you have the game templates loaded in your VPS, then yes, you can actually run game server on your box.
