it makes a huge difference.  a physical server requires rack space, power, 
network drop, IP allocation, physical access, etc.  if you can find anyone 
willing to give you all that for free you just take their offer.

the best of both worlds is a virtual server - most of the benefits of your own 
server with less overhead.  it costs more than virtual (name-based) hosting but 
less than physical hosting.  i can set you up with one of those if you want, not 
for free but i'll give you a reasonable rate.  contact me offline if you'd like 
to discuss in more detail.
