It's FUD. I'M running Zope on two NT servers here, which run many months between reboots. I just checked - the Zope on the intranet server has an uptime of 34 days 8 hours 32 min 3 sec now.
I must say that I agree. All in all for my current needs, NT is a better choice than Linux. Better user interface and reasonable software uptime. I am slowly migrating to Linux though. As I really do believe the open source philosophy is better. But like Zope it is a b**** of a learning curve. Something like Zope shows it in a smaller scale. I would be willing to start a business on Zope technology because coorporation on the toolset is the smartest thing for service companies to do, and this is not a closed source option. I have tried some of the closed source application servers and they are so poor. Funnily enough I see companies reinventing the weel with these application servers, doing a lousy job every time. Zope is still not great, but lightyears ahead of anything else I have experienced. Being a web house and not doing an open source app server is so futile. Furthermore the new KDE2.0 looks really sexy. Just gotta finish one more project then I will upgrade from my old KDE1.0. Max M
