    Don't do it! You must resist!

    Seriously... even the Gartner Group, not renowned for being fans of open
    source software, are advising people not to use IIS, and to
    investigate alternatives.

    Note that, while I would certainly prefer and advocate a Linux- or
    Unix-based solution, that doesn't mean you can't run say, Apache, on
    NT (yeah, 2000, SSDD). I wouldn't do it, but if you can't choose your
    OS or won't choose a better OS, you do have that option.
