I am interested in the question of selecting a server platform.
For example, are these guesses correct:
unix gets the earliest ports of new server software (are some
unices more desirable than others)?
unix server software is least prone to crashes
unix server software has more features
unix has the most development tools
Macintosh server software is easiest to install
Macintosh has the easiest to use development tools
Windows server hardware is cheapest when disk space is taken into account
Windows server software is most crash prone
the size of the Windows market may cause servers and tools to
improve significantly by the time Windows95 is out
Windows has the most development tools
What are the important differences? Are there classes of user
and application for which unix is a must? For whom a Mac or
Windows is the best choice?
