Hello,

it sounds like your looking for windows 2008. Is it shared hosting or reseller hosting your looking for?

Jodohost.com is a good windows host.

The opening poster required IIS7 when jodohost advertise Windows 2003 which is IIS6.

Well, we offer everything on that list, on IIS6. IIS7 offers some advantages primarily to web hosts, but I don't see how IIS6 vs IIS7 should be a major concern to a client with a good, stable host.

Well, the difference is also between Win 2003 and Win 2008. I am having couple of Win 2008 boxes and have been testing some of the heavy applications. I can see good amount of performance improvement on Win 2008 when compared to Win 2003 with similar configuration.

Hello,

Take in mind that most shared ASP.NET hosting providers charged additional for MS SQL and if you order 5 MSSQL dbs the price will be as for VPS solution.

Windows 2008 is a remarkable OS :) And we have boxes with it too.
But the point I am making is that feature wise, there is no need for the client to require Windows 2008 at this moment.

As far as stability/performance goes, a well managed windows box running windows 2000, 2003 or 2008 is a good stable platform for windows hosting clients
