Well, I'm no marketer, I don't even use an app server though my employer makes
one but if you think that servers that cost money are of no use, then you've
never had to reach tech support at 2 AM. Who's home at "Orion" if you have a
server problem on Saturday afternoon on Labor Day weekend? I'd never, if it
were up to me, use an open-source, freeware app server if reliability and
vailability mattered to me.
