OK, so for the Apache crowd out there:
Name a bank, insurance company, major online retailer, a government agency or anything that of high importance that uses Apache.

All Apache is doing is serving dumb HTML pages. It is good for nothing but that. Each serious site that has Apache as a front facing web server has another real web server doing the heavy lifting in the middle-tier: IIS, WebSphere, Weblogic. Pick your poison.
That's why all those stats are skewed. Apache is nothing but a very simple fast web-server that on its own is good for nothing. It always has to rely on some commercial middle-tier.

Absoultely false. Firefox is nowhere near in adoption levels and overall stability to IE8.

Wow. You're just determined to collect signs today, aren't you?
Here's your sign....again
PS. Hey, why don't you tell us all about the superior stability & security of Windows versus linux? Nobody uses linux except for hobbyists and people seeking extra-terrestrial life, so it's gotta be crap.
Windows Server 2008 beats all Linux servers.
Total percentage of human beings using Linux as their choice of Desktop OS: 1%

I haven't seen a company use IIS in a *long* time. Even on their windows servers they use apache and tomcat for windows.
BUT .. just in case you knew more than me I googled..

Oh gee... Apache has Top Market share across all domains.
Not only that.. but Apache has 53%, with IIS second place at only 24%. Damn.. even I didn't think it was that bad.

Yanno.. a bunch of nobody companies.
I love the smell of flame-bait in the morning. It smells like idiocy.
