Any wiki pages on hostmysite?

I just got the 411 on wiki pages. This is something that would be great for offloading some of my editing work.
Does anyone hosting with hostmysite have a wiki page I can look at so I can get some idea of how it's setup?
Any recommended tools? Is this something that can be installed on hostmysite?

MediaWiki will run on the Linux plans. It's php/mysql based, and the software wikipedia is run on.

We have a Windows account. Would you recommend something or that OS?

cwhitmore, I believe there may be some sort of CF-based Wiki software, but I believe the "big three" Wiki engines would be MediaWiki, TikiWiki, and DokuWiki. All of them are written in PHP, which we don't currently support on Windows

Note that as far as I know, any of them could run on our $2.95/month Linux Starter plan:
http://www.hostmysite.com/hosting/linux/

So if you have an existing windows plan of domain.com, we could set you up with, e.g. wiki.domain.com and point that to a $2.95/month Starter plan and you could run a wiki there
