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.

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?"

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. Jerry Banker
