You want to put up an apache / linux box, it can be stable as Mt. Everest. But guess what - so is an NT server with a limited and known application suite.

I have data from a large number (hundreds) of machines running an application mix both under Linux and W2K. Linux is good, but not as good as W2K... This was work that we did for an outfit that wanted to use Linux so the bias, if anything, was against MSFT and Windows 2000.

The biggest problem the MS stack has is the need to run any damn fool thing that anyone writes. When a host of user applications appear for Linux, you'll see the same kind of instability in that environment.
