One of the many great things about Perl is it can run just about anywhere. Perl is used on Windoze NT, Win2000, Linux. Solaris, etc. It has even been ported to IBM's AS/400. Perl is used for most CGI scripts, but I personally think it is better for Unix administration. There are other languages that I think work better on the web than Perl like PHP and Java Server Pages. Python is also a very interesting language. - Steve
