The bigger picture is, that you don't go for a specific type of server if if you want to spend $25 million on a campaign. You go for a web services provider that has a service that works. In this case, that web service provider uses FreeBSD.

The big picture is also, that you don't change to Windows so easily - you risk ending up like Microsoft and Unisys did. Microsoft isn't the easy solution - it's a solution that can work if you buy more Unisys help than Unisys and Microsoft were willing to buy themselves.

Re: You have every right to be to make fun of the minutiae

Gee, thanks for your permission, your honor.

Re: while you fail to see the bigger picture

And thanks for your awesome display of mind reading abilities. I've heard that there is an opening at the Psychic Network.

Thanks for pointing out that my rights could be curtailed if I could just see the bigger picture as easily as you do. But apparently not my right to make vacuous, asinine comments in a public forum.
