What makes a programming language architecture neutral by the way?

i have alredy beat the 7th gym leader but i will like to know how to get to the 8th gym leader i know its at sunnyshore city but how do you get there please help me i will really aprexiate it

I m currently stuck deciding between 2 great free hosts!
Here s the breakdown:

Host # 1:
- short subdomain (about 3 char. long)
- cPanel w/fantastico
- PHP and Perl Support
- Unlimited Sub-domains- E-mail- & MySQL Databases
- Somewhat inactive owner
- somewhat active hostees
- very slow response (I posted a question at the forum and I only got a reply from the owner 10 days later)
- not responsible for back-ups
- owner has to review apps first
- reseller at surpasshosting

HOST # 2:
- long subdomain (about 14 char. long)
- No cPanel but has Webmin control panel instead
- Unlimited space and bandwidth
- Up to 2 subdomains (more upon request) and up to 5 websites
- PHP 5.2- Ruby on Rails 1.2- MySql 5.0- phpMyAdmin- etc.
- regular offsite back-ups
- Very active owner (I sent 2 questions through email to him already and responded less than 30 minutes!)
- Somewhat inactive hostees
- very selective when it comes to hostees (But I fit)
- own server
I m not linking to the sites because I don t want to attract applications from noobs and abusers if you know what I mean...

The site I m planning to make is a personal site and portfolio/fanlisting collective. I might buy a domain name and my own hosting account next year when I get my online payment stuff set-up. But for now- free-hosting will do.

What do you guys think? Any opinion is much appreciated.

it is a question

data:
abcdefgh
<----- (Blank space just enter enter)
ijklmno

Problem:
How do i tell perl to skip this line if i m making a loop????

sample:
while (<DATA>)
{
if ($_ =~ ????????????) <--- don t know
{
}
else
{
print OUT $_;
}
}
