I'm not a linux advocate, nor a windows advocate; even not the devil's. But I rather like UNIX-like operating systems, and Linux is (afaik) a good one. Maybe people don't want to use it in big business because they won't trust a product that doesn't come from a company they can sue. Or maybe they do not know they can get technical support as for other OS's. Or someone above them has those ideas.

Yet I believe that Linux is suitable in some situations.

Also, I do not understand the problem people have with GUIs. Sure a stand-alone unmanned computer is better off without one, but if you've got to use the computer (hey! maybe even remotely) it can be much more confortable and even productive.

Apache is the track leader in the business, so it is not such a hard decision to take; besides, I would say that choosing your web server is not always as influenced by the powers that be than choosing your OS. As for FreeBSD, well, I don't know. I just said maybe...
