Actually, I was thinking more of a comparison similar to the one a few
months back that was discussed in this -chat list. That one was unfair
because the guy set things up out of the box, didn't tune the FreeBSD at
all, and the machine was huge enough that M$ could actually run. I would
be glad to write a straight review, maybe we should offer that as well.

Suppose we set up two HW configs, say a P166 with 64MB and a P][ with
256MB, and give teams of experts from each side a week to build a
website to spec. Then we do a load test. This will allow them to play
their ASP games, and us to tweak our machine and our CGI scripts. I
think this would be a fair comparison. We could do it at one of the big
shows, maybe, and make it a public event.

I will approach InfoWorld editorial staff about this.
