| A Linux version of the Zend Platform 3.0 will be available on Monday
| for both 32-bit and 64-bit chips.

| By April, Zend intends to release a Windows version, which will be
| the first time that the company will offer a certified Windows
| deployment server, Gutmans said. Right now, most PHP applications
| run on Linux servers rather than Windows because PHP software for
| Linux is more robust, he said.

| on availability (windows was down more than linux). And I don't like the
| fact that the reports says nothing new is coming with windows .net server."

| "I don't like it to be public on the doc that we sponsored it because I
| don't think the outcome is as favorable as we had hoped. I just don't like
| competitors using it as ammo against us. It is easier if it doesn't mention
| that we sponsored it."
