NYCPHP Meetup

[Rukbat]

For a number of reasons, most of our web servers are *nix, so for the 
one box that had to be Windows (no way to talk to RDB7 on a Vax from 
*nix at the time), I kept to the same server.  We do have a few boxes 
running IIS, but to me that feels like wearing a skirt - it's something 
someone else does.  Nothing wrong with it, I just don't do it.

I've never done a head-to-head, and I'm sure microsoft.com runs on IIS, 
but there's another aphorism - if it's not broke, don't fix it.
