Understandable. Well, I never found it, anyway, despite being motivated 
to look (at various points in the past). So I'd hate to have to be the 
one to explain to a newbie how to get IIS working on their machine just 
so that they can get some JavaScript experience. By comparison, Apache 
has been present and working on every Linux distro I've ever used, 
except for Ubuntu (where it's just a "sudo apt-get install" away).
