Sorry, but this is silly. The Real Answer: Use whatever you're
most comfortable with. Network World's increasingly a Unix
shop, and the person we hired as a webmaster has a Unix
background, so guess what sort of server we're using for our
Web site? He knows Perl, he's comfortable with it and he
doesn't consider it a Major Catastrophe he can't build apps via
connect-the-dot GUIs. If we were an NT shop, we probably
would've done things differently, but we're not.
