if i wanted to buy a small ftb server, would it be cheaper to buy a bad computer and host it from that, or rent one out?

You would most likely get a better connection from renting an FTB server. I used aim2game for a few months and it never had a problem.

probsbly not as good as Linux, seeing as most game server apps, at least, target windows and Linux only. Also Linux has the advantage of running on pretty much anything.

Cheaper, easier and better to rent one out. Go for that.

64bit.
