Nothing to do with Java, of course, but this thread had > diverged into the demographics of servers. It's a reasonably common software stack, but it's not a J2EE stack, which you know. I thought we were talking J2EE servers (with a possible expansion of the discussion over into what might run .NET apps), not every web server possible. Specifically I thought the question was, what OS's are supporting the servers that run J2EE (and possibly .NET) applications. The thread _did_ diverge, but let's bring it back on track. In addition, I think the original discussion also included the OS's that J2EE developers might be coding on - it's my hypothesis that the OS that developers write J2EE apps on is very often Windows.
