Why? Two reasons:

1) To test and get to know them. It was real fun.
2) After testing, they proved much more efficient performance-wise, and they 
have some very useful
modules (mod_evasive, for instance).

- From a "completeness" perspective, they still lack lots of the high-quality 
modules Apache has.

Exactly, that's why I still use Apache for them. (example: pmwiki)

I'd appreciate more information from you regarding this. Thanks!
