This article is written from a Windows server admin perspective, talking
about the benefits of Apache 2.0 on a Windows server. It has
screenshots too showing the installation process, with explanations of
the pros and cons of Apache over IIS.
After the repeated security nightmares of IIS, it may be helpful to show
this to your sysadmin friends who use Microsoft IIS as a method of
improving their server security, especially those who are serving only
static pages.

"While previous versions of Apache were a great solution in environments
running Unix or Linux, the Windows version always lagged behind in terms
of performance. The fact that Apache holds over 50% of the Web server
market is testament to its performance and reliability. However, up
until now, that was pretty much limited to the *nix world. Yes, a Win32
version has been available for a long time. However, the new version
really takes Apache to a level where you should give it serious
consideration on your Windows 2000 servers."
