Green Geeks understands the importance in making sure that the most popular software programs for web hosting customers must be fully supported by our servers.
Green Geeks servers completely supports Joomla 1.5 (all versions before 1.5) and our servers are already set to support the next Joomla version 1.6 currently in beta testing.
You can see Joomla's server requirements at:
http://www.joomla.org/about-joomla/technical-requirements.html
And you can find all of the Green Geeks server stats at:

In addition to this we would like you to know that we don't skimp on our hardware or software in any way. We buy only Raid 10, quad core, 8GB RAM servers and house them in a world class data facility which you can read more about on our servers & data center page:

In a nut shell what Joomla requires is:
Joomla requires PHP version 5.2 or higher;
Green Geeks servers have PHP version 5.2.9
Joomla requires MYSQL version 4.1.x or higher;
Green Geeks servers have MYSQL version 5.0.89
Joomla requires Apache version 2.x or higher;
Green Geeks servers have Apache version 2.2.14
When Joomla launches version 1.6 the server requirements will be that the server has PHP 5.2 or higher and MYSQL 5.0.4 or higher both of which are supported by the Green Geeks servers currently.
At Green Geeks we plan ahead for the future knowing that our clients requirements will grow and that our clients will want to make sure that their growth will be seemless. This is why Green Geeks servers are configured to support all of the current and future versions of the most popular software programs. Green Geeks is here to support you and your web site projects.
Thank you,
The Green Geeks Server Admin Team
