absolutely. Everyone has their favourites, and a million and one reasons for backing them. In the case of webservers it's a little different in light of the sorts of problems we've seen with worms etc over the last couple of years, but as James points out people should keep up with patches etc anyways. I personally prefer to use something that can be guaranteed as secure, but a lot of people are locked into a particular solution. I still develop for windows a lot, I just keep my iis server away from the rest of the internet. <g> Incidentally, has anyone on this list ever tried CF with the really alternative servers, like Orion etc?
