Re: Is IIS worth the risk?

Jim,

A recent report from Netcraft estimated an IIS install base of approximately
11 million servers.  The last number I heard from IBM for OS/400 based Web
servers running was 100,000 (perhaps most of which are Intranet).  The
Apache install base was estimated at 20 million.

Unfortunately the numbers seem to indicate that the iSeries is not a serious
competitor when it comes to Web presence.
