My main web server running windows server 2003 was last rebooted Feb 2008 ! 

 

I think people when you say windows think about their own experience of
their desktop whereas when it is on a server the whole usage is very
different, that is what i am trying to get across !

 

 

Having said all this yes i would prefer linux just because of its ease of
tuning using the shell and text based config files is much easier than say a
gui and the registry.

Right on Jerry.

We recently experienced a violent lightning storm here in South Florida.

While we have a backup generator and multiple UPS systems, transient
protection, etc.,

we thought it prudent to bring down some systems, do some spring-cleaning
and vacuum 

out the dust bunnies and cat fur from the fans and filters.

 

When bringing up one of the SUSE Linux servers, running uniVerse, I was
greeted with the message:

System has gone 220 days without a shutdown.

 

To quote Jerry, 

"Can you say the same about Windows?"

Let's see now. I have been working on Unix type systems for 30 years and
never had an anti-virus program running on any of them. Can you say the same
about Windows? In that time only one of them got hacked. Can you say the
same about Windows? I can go on if you wish.
