Default Linux Used In a Professional Setting. Here is an Example!!!!!!!!!!!

Their site is running IIS.

I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that you might have made an error.

Geoff -

I wouldn't say that Linux was 'designed' for networking and servers,
so much as that's what most of the applications for it are designed to
do.

It's kinda like saying Windows was 'designed' for word processing.
Yeah, it's what a large chucnk of it's users do on it, but it can do
so much more.

Just like Linux... :-)

I concur, it's running Microsoft-IIS/5.0.

Linux does indeed make them stupid.

How do you know their site is running IIS? By file extension .aspx? Have
you heard of Mono?

I really don't see why you think this is news. I used linux in a
professional capacity doing scientific software development and support
for reduction of radar data at a major DOD test facility before I retired.
It was also used in the realtime system.

Most affordable? pah, the speccy cost less than half the price, you didn't
need a dedicated tape recorder that added more to the cost, and it was much
better at games like Elite.

Amstrad CPC 6128. That was a good computer. I have mine
side to side with my laptop. It reminds me of the good
old days :-)

You could even run CP/M 3.0 on it!

The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live,
mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time,
the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn

Actually, for a true example, simply look at the city government of
Largo, Florida. Some years ago, they got tired of having to pay the
exorbitant licensing feeds required by Microsoft, so they had their IT
guys install Linux on ALL city-owned computers during one weekend. They
used FVWM, I think, to simulate the look and feel of Windows 2000.
Interestingly enough, it took at least 30 minutes for anyone to realize
that they were NOT using Windows. Since then, they've been using Linux,
but I'm not sure which distro(s) they chose. They've saved untold
hunders of thousands of dollars since they chose Linux over Microsoft.
That would be a great place to be a sysadmin hehehe

If you think Wing sounds bad, you should listen to Mrs Miller.

They did that sort of changeover without a few major glitches and
loads of minor ones? Sorry, I don't believe you.
