I agree ... after working with SUN, IBM AIX, AS/400, MS Windows and Novell
... it's all in the app and server setup ... a single bad app can make any
OS look like crap.  Before anyone jumps on me ... I'm currently running IBM
RS/6000's with AIX, Windows 2000 servers, Windows NT 4.0 servers and one
FreeBSD server.  They all have their place, I believe in the best tool for
the job ... not XXXX OS is the best for everything.

This is *nix FUD.  Having managed shops running both kinds of systems for
10+ years I've come to the conclusion that if a system is set up well with
the right software for the job it runs well, regardless of OS.  To say one
is always better than the other just shows ignorance of the other.

TCO generally seems to be the same as well.
