Here is a site to help people understand why Linux is better. And just to labour the point there is nothing better than looking at your uptime and knowing that Windows servers don't stand a chance in the stability stakes, one of my servers currently has an uptime of 545 days.
That's nearly two years it's been up and running, doing all sorts of things without crashing or requiring a reboot. What more can I say?

Heaven preserve us from the dreary Linux/Firefox proselytizers
Nowt wrong with Linux it's getting better ,server side it's great ,client side it's coming along nicely ,I can remember 0.98?used it for routing and email.
There's more to an OS than sysadmin preference, however. Just don't tell any sysadmins that (they are sensitive flowers liable to start reading your emails).
I know what you wrote the other day.
Pah! 545 days? Almost an advert for instability! :-)
In the run-up to the "Great Year 2000 Catastrophe" (TM) I had to shut down and patch a number of old Novell servers, the most ephemeral of which had been running, untouched, for a shade under 4 years... The "oldest" had been untouched for over 8 years and, after I so rudely interrupted it in late 1999, continues quietly behaving itself to this day.
