I run slimserver on the Linux side of a dual boot machine. Sometimes I

The main reason I don't also run slimserver from the Windows side is
all the music is currently stored on a logical volume under Fedora Core
4, which Windows can't mount/see. Plus, I'd really hate to deal with
running perl under Windows... yuck!
Perl is fine on Windows -- a bit annoying to deal with the filename
conversion issues until you realize you should use / instead of \,
otherwise it's no biggie. I haven't seen any performance difference. I
don't run Slimserver on Windows because my Windows boxes are all
laptops, but I do write Perl scripts on Windows.
