Which opens to the notion that Apache isn't really meant for windows, and Linux or OS X or BSD or ANY unix is simply more stable and secure. It makes business sense to use them because over the long haul you are going to spend less time cleaning up after hackers, less time cleaning up after crashes, etc. It is pure lunacy to go from a successful linux site to a windows IIS site. It will not be as successful.
That said, with my low volume site, apache on windows server 2003 and even win XP professional have run very nicely. That might be a nice compromise for them.

Interesting.

Win2k server and up (advanced server, datacenter server) are meant for high availability, especially datacenter server.
