[FIXED] What VPS can do?

Issue

I am new to VPS. My shared hosting plan dont allow me to install chat script in my website. They require me to get VPS hosting.

I have now a Free VPS with
128MB RAM 10GB Disk Space Unlimited Bandwidth

Instant Setup
OpenVZ Virtualization
Linux OS

Why they require me into this VPS hosting? Can i install a game/chat script? can i host unlimited website? can i host unlimited domain? can i install red5? can i make a streaming wbsite? how can i? do i need to install any software in my vps?

Other said that you can do anything you want in VPS hosting? why? is it like a computer? that i can install all software? emphasized text

Solution

Well , a vps server is a virtual machine so it's not really a machine but it simulates a machine so , yes you'll need to install an Os like a linux distribution.

Example: For debian then you'll need to install all what a web server needs , with the terminal so it's not that easy , i mean that it is easier to install a chat script on shared hosting my friend.

And no you do not need a vps for a chatting script , and if you need a chat room then here is the easiest way.
