Given the choice of the 2, What MS operating system is best to run your dedicated game server (particularly BF1942).
XP? or Server 2003? Or would it even make a difference...?

Doubtful that you have the hardware that would utilize 2k3 more effectively....stick with XP and tweak the hell out of it.

Excepting the Linux option, it wont matter very much - except perhaps one might use up less memory, though thats likely only all that significant to server farms who need to squeeze everything to absolute minimal cost per player slot.
