Netcraft Survey Updated

The latest survey is out and ready for reading from Netcraft. There's some interesting commentary in regards to Code Red, and its effects on web usage. One of the things that I found most interesting was the data showing that while the number of sites hosted by Apache continues to grow, the number of physical webservers running some variety of Windows is about half of the total. Worth checking out.

Unfortunately, this is probably closer to the truth than I can imagine. How many times has the stat's been twisted in MS's favour?
Jump forward to 6months from now;
MS "Look how many machines run NT and IIS compared to other systems!"
SysAdmin "But we can run 20 IIS sites on one Apache ser..."
MS "SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP! LOOK AT THE STATS!"

One particuler cheery comment;
"Linux leads Windows in Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Germany, Japan, Austria and Finland - Linus Torvalds' home country"
7 countries and counting...
