    Please give an example of "web server management" that can be scripted on Unix that can not be scripted on Windows.

    Please give an example of "user account management" that can be scripted on Unix that can not be scripted on Windows.

    Please give an example of "firewall management" that can be scripted on Unix that can not be scripted on Windows.

    Please give and example of "hardware configuration" that can be scripted on Unix that can not be scripted on Windows.

    Please give an example of the "75% of it's (sic) [Windows] operation [hidden] from all users."

    Otherwise, quit your Trolling.
