 Microsoft is Good, Right?
Here is just another reason to use Microsoft IIS for your web server. As this article from e-week describes, every time a high level security government web server is compromised, they work hard to release a patch to fix it. This is just another reason why open source software is bad -- do you really want the world researching a problem that doesn't exist yet? I mean really, think about it, why patch a server before it is necessary? That's ridiculous! I don't think anyone should patch their server until they have been hacked at least once.

And look at all of the benefits you get from using a Microsoft product: reliability, millions of faithful users, none of those pesky fees or licenses to purchase, and last but not least - none of that open source crap. However, there is a down side to using their products, uptime - who wants a server that never needs to be rebooted - Windows is so solid that it will run forever! (if the power stays on, I don't want to get your hopes up!) Another bad thing about using a Microsoft OS for your server is that it actually eliminates jobs! Think about it - These servers are so reliable that you don't need an IS dept. And why should you?

This article has been brought to you by the University of Sarcasm and advocates for Open Source Software.

Remember this, you have to pay for quality! (And pay, and pay, and pay...)
