Explain your reasons.
I vote for Apache simply because it pwns because I think there are many more modules.

It has a graphical interface and it is better for large companies. Also, IIS has a better Independent Request Handler. Apache is not .NET integrated, and no built-in ASP support. Apache does not come with Active Directory Authentication. Apache has limited Command Line Management. Apache has limited Isolated Applications. It just depends on what you want... |

Well, I think many large companies use IIS, but that's because there computers allow it and it's easier to setup, etc.
Why would it be better for larger companies?

Not coming with asp/asp.net is no problem, and anyway it doesn't because it's not made by Microsoft. You can easily aquire the modules for asp and asp.net to work.

It is better for large companies because it is close-sourced.

Meh, who really cares if it's closed source =p. If close-source stuff is so good, then big companies wouldn't be using PHP either. =p=p=p=p=p=p
EDIT: Maybe I should have voted for both
EDIT: Apache is better for CGI and PHP, and IIS is only good since Microsoft makes a bunch of their products work nicely with it (SQL Server, ASP.NET, etc.).

I think you mean "also good"... 2. When you have a choice between two things that get the same exact job done, go for the closed-source (if you are interested in server security, etc.) |

If you're with LAMP and you're a developer you're going to be going for open-source.

Yes, but if you're not with LAMP?

Well I am, except for the "L" in "LAMP" part =p.
Maybe if I get a dual-boot...
But I'm also a .NET coder so another reason why I use Windows.

Also, IIS is insecure. Click |

Edit your posts...
And what use is LAMP if you don't use Linux?
Additionally, the date of that article is 2001... Don't you think it has been upgraded since then?

I don't use Linux because: A: My mother chooses the computers we get B: I'm more used to Windows  C: I'm a .NET coder. D: I don't have the stuff needed for a dual-boot |

I don't use Linux because: B: I'm more used to Windows Come on! Have you ever seen Gnome or KDE? All of those are nice window managers that have a layout that is somewhat like that of windows. I used Gnome on my dad's computer, and it's even easier to grasp than windows (and it comes with lots of cool software!). |

OK OK that isn't a good reason....
What I want though is a dual-boot (doesn't everybody).

Do you know how to make a dual-boot?
