[Zope] Windows or Linux?

[Andre Meyer]

While it does not really make a difference with respect to the base 
functionality, my experience is that Linux is more responsive (better 
performance) and stable. I have been running Zope and Plone on various 
machines with Windows 2000 and XP, as well as Red Hat 8/9/Fedora. Fedora 
is my current OS of choice with excellent performance and features. 
Fedora Core 2 will be out soon with the Linux 2.6 kernel which should 
even improve current performance.
Of course, if you need OS specific libraries that will direct your 
choice. Otherwise, try to avoid such libraries.  ;-)

good luck
Andre
