You can certainly run 'em all in a WAMP stack; for example you can runWordPress on a Windows Server. The deal-breaker has traditionally been the lack of URL rewrite capabilities in the Windows environment limiting your choice of URLs to those that use traditional parameters (?p=someId). If mod_rewrite or human-friendly URLs aren't required, I agree that Windows could run any of the popular CMS out there. -RYAN JOY http://ryanjoy.com http://twitter.com/atxryan > Louis > > On 01/18/2010 05:03 PM, Lynn Bender wrote: >> Pat, >> >> >because everything I've seen in the past 5 years almost reflexively runs on >> >some LAMP variation. >> >> There are good reasons for that. >> >> >> -- >> -Lynn Bender >> http://geekaustin.org >> http://linuxagainstpoverty.org >> http://twitter.com/linearb >> >> On Mon, Jan 18, 2010 at 4:20 PM, Pat Ramsey <[email protected]> wrote: >> Hi folks, >> >> I have a need for a decent CMS that runs on a Windows server.
