Hello all,<br><br>I use GMail, which presents 'suitable' ads (for some definition of suitable) on one side of the screen. While viewing the latest thread on running Firefox w/ Java on x86_64 architecture I saw a Google ad for another 'independent' (for some definition ..) web site asking the age old question, Windows or Linux?
<br><br>I visited, curious, and saw Ziff Davis, a long time Microsoft ally, at the bottom of the opening page, The conclusion (Windows!) was pre-ordained, but I filled out the survey anyway (What's your number one concern in using Open Source applications?
[] Indemnification [] Interoperability [] Performance [] Reliability [] Security), noting that TCO wasn't listed. The percentages on the survey were all nice multiples of 2%, so it could be that I was the fiftieth person to answer the survey. Or just lucky.
<br><br>Anyway, the web site is at<br><br> <a href="http://www.serveriq.net/category2/0,1874,1873037,00.asp">http://www.serveriq.net/category2/0,1874,1873037,00.asp</a><br><br>and I find myself wondering, is there a tally anywhere of the pro-Windows and pro-Linux web sites anywhere? A blog showing the latest news and issues would be fascinating to read. If only there were more hours in the day.
