As you point out, Drupal works on either. However, it's much easier to
deal with Drupal on a *nix (in this case, Linux) server since it's
really built for LAMP users; from cron to tar files. If you're going to
run Drupal, it may be better to use Linux because of the continuity of
training. Right now, I have a client building a Linux server to run
Drupal, even though they are presently running an Apache build on
Windows (the Saint, from Germany).
Granted, I have personal bias to Linux, but I think Linux, Apache, MySQL
and PHP (LAMP) is the way to go.

Hello Everyone,
I am currently in the decision making process of whether to use
Drupal on a Microsoft server or on a Linux server.
The arguments FOR Microsoft are: (well, for us, it's free - another
org is going to host for us, and Drupal can be installed on it)
The arguments AGAINST Microsoft are: that will mean we go to another
host (paid) and that PHP and MySql run differntly on it.
Does anyone have any other input that could help in the decision
making process? Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated...
