Personally, I'm disgusted by the Miscrosoft licenses for their Server OSs, lack of a good default configuration, and (did i mention security?).
Thats why I install Linux in every office I touch.
And am actively converting all server rooms to *nix like OS's, such as Linux.
Linux is fast, easy, free and works great out of the box. (or download in this case)
So any office that needs to build a server, what's better, an OS with open standards that can be downloaded and installed for free and reasonable default configs and security OR a propietary OS, which will cost money to license and needs heavy configuration to make it work as desired...did I mention security?
Alot of people using Windows have been pirating it anyway.
Not really possible to pirate Linux, LOL.
If people actually paid for Windows, my opionion is they would switch to Linux or something silimar in 5 seconds.
My opinion, Windows has its place, just not as a server. Thats just MY opinion.
Off topic I know, but in context with this thread, anyway.
Also, I love to be corrected, thats how I learn more... so if anything I typed here isn't true, please correct me.
Best Regards,
