Even Microsoft-Watch, which is very pro-Microsoft (especially since Mary Jo
Foley was replaced by Joe Wilcox) moved from Windows to Red Hat about 8 months
ago. That was ***after*** Joe Wilcox, who clearly hates Linux (and shows it),
took over.
I can't recall the last time my personal site had a downtime. I actually
thought about it two hours ago because I realised that I take uptime and
consistent high performance for granted. The site runs on Red Hat Enterprise
Linux.
