This kind of visceral, irrational anti-MS sentiment doesn't really help sell non-MS products. Lots of people use MS products successfully and safely, and just dismiss any rational arguments you might actually have if they're preceded by this. Lots of people run secure Windows servers, and lots of people run insecure Linux servers. > and then before u mentioned something about not knowing if > what ur proposing will even be around in a few yrs. > > u mean like m$ did with asp? and im sure will do again with .net "Classic" ASP is still here - there's nothing stopping you from running your ASP applications on Windows Server 2003, for example. Most web applications have a relatively short lifespan anyway.
