I wasn't really sure where to post this one. My client got web hosting from Networksolutions.com. He hired me as a web designer, but his hosting plan was Windows, with ASP. That's it ASP and MsSQL. I have no clue how to use ASP and I hate Windows hosting. He already payed $120 for the year. Is there any way to switch from a Windows host to a UNIX host on Networksolutions.com. Like I said I hate Windows hosting and any help would be greatly appreciated. I do not have the time to wait until next year to switch to a UNIX host with PHP. I am not wasting his $120 either. HELP!

Does ASP work in unix ?
asp for windows hosting
php for *nix hosts
LiKe Macs & PCs (windows & ASP are the Mac of the server world)
about 2% think that .asp is the best thing since sliced bread
the other 98% just go on about the task at hand,
