The major difference is, on Linux hosting is that you can not host a .net website and it supports only PHP and Java with MYSQL also it does not support MSSQL database. With Windows hosting you can host both the applications .net and PHP and MSSQL and MYSQL. Both the platforms are good for hosting and it completely depends on the application code.
