For me, that would be most probably both if I were serious. Less of a target of course (I'm only one dude), but also much less attack surface. Basically install a trusty GNU/Linux or Open BSD, set up automatic updates, and block everything but SSH. Oh, and disable password based logins —use a public/private key pair of appropriate strength.
Or better yet, ask actual security experts about that setup, they're likely to come up with something better (just as simple and more secure).
