Post #258,214 by admin 6/8/06 5:28:02 PM Reply	My belief: I think MS is paying/encouraging big ISPs to move their parked domains to IIS. The parked domains don't add anything other than bulk since no one is actually using the domain names for sites, but they make the numbers look better.

The jump was too quick to represent anything other than a marketing push, probably of the strong-arm variety.

It is doubly absurd when you figure in the price sensitivity of these companies. If MS isn't cutting them a deal, they would be spending a fourtune on liscensing. Jay

Is it? When was the last time you seriously sat down and evaluated both servers? IIS 4 was a dog, but there's a lot of time elapsed since then. I don't doubt that IIS6 is a swine to manage, but then again, Apache does have a config file that contains some [link\|http://people.apache.org/~rbowen/presentations/apacheconEU2005/hate_apache.pdf\|alarming stupidity].
