linux provides both mainframe and web ootb. this is greatly different to
windows, which ootb does not offer anything mainframe like, every single
service seems to be capped to an impossible level. terminal services on
xp offers a single concurrent user. one has to get a more expensive
version in order to offer that. etc etc.
by filling the gap between mainframe and desktop by a single platform
those who are clued can take advantage. and it's not just linux, bsd
offers this also.
