Not as the comparison was stated, James.  Not one of the people on this
list comparing a PC-based web application server is doing it using a
Unix server decked out to support thousands of users.  This is a red
herring argument, and I don't have the time to deal with it.

The ones talked about in this context are not worrying about these
things.  I'm not lying and I resent the mischaracterization.  Please
take a moment to try to keep your comments in context.
