I read this article, and I have to say I disagree for smallish sites. 
I use CF as the backend for a site that gets about 20,000 hits a day
(www.accessmagazine.com), and it's run on NT4 for 5 months without a
hitch. 

But then again I'm in the USA, and I rely on a mailing list
(cf-talk@houseoffusion.com) for most of my support. I'd love to work more
with Zope professionally, but the PHBs aren't ready to support something
they've never heard of, even if it is better for some purposes.

just my $0.02,
