FYI, this is a Windows XP newsgroup. Advocating installing an
alternative, sub-par operating system is unsupported.

So that's why Linux has 75% of the Server market because it's "sub-par"? BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

Did you make up this statistic or can you provide proof? A quick
googole search doesn't find one study that puts Linux ahead of
Microsoft in Server OS maket share. Possibly you are talking about
web servers? Even there I couldn't find any statistics close to
yours. Linux is certainly a viable alternative to Windows for servers
but making exorbitant, easily proved wrong statements doesn't help
the cause of promoting Linux.

The second graph shows that for web servers Apache leads IIS
substantially. Approx 70/20.

But this is silly. Please ignore the trolls.

Cheers,
