* More stable (the only time it goes down is when you want it to).
The above is the most important reason for many, many people; but here are
a few others.
* Runs faster.
* Less resource hungry - handles a higher load *MUCH* better than NT.
* Better tech support. (this list!)
* The Base O/S Costs less.
* Comes with sources.
* Lots of free software-resources off the 'Net
Cheers.
