Well, gb is a good choice and you can also use it from other platforms
with something like FreeNX: there are clients for w$ & apple.
(This is a kind of TSR: the server's doing all the work and you've got
the windows onto your regular desktop transparently, with debit as low
as ~30KB/sec (peak and 1st shot before caching!))

You also have Python that is multi-platforms but desesperatly lacks a
real good RAD (and it is also slower than gb.)

Yeah, sorry I missed the unit: MB (thought it was GB:(
Sat prices are ~€90 for 512kbps in france, so I guess you won't find
no more than 128kbps for the same price in Argentina.

ubuntu is a good choice as it is Debian based (unlike rh you just install
what you want :)
but avoid unstable branch, as you'll need several MB to upgrade per day.
