Actually, Windows VPS hosting packages are expensive in comparison to Linux VPS hosting packages as Windows operating system requires licensing fee and and Linux does not require licensing fee as it is a free (open source) operating system.
When it comes to Programming languages, if you wish to play around with ASP, ASP.NET etc. then you should choose Windows based VPS. Otherwise, you can choose Linux based VPS also.
