Rackspace Survey: Linux vs. Windows 50/50

Ed Sutherland writes in NewsFactor Technology News:

The decision to use Windows instead of Linux is based more on availability of applications and less on security or cost concerns, according to a new survey by Web hosting company Rackspace.

The survey revealed a dichotomy between what the two OS camps believe are the core issues facing corporations and the actual factors involved in choosing Windows or Linux.

Rackspace manages more than 13,000 servers, with an approximate 50-50 Linux and Windows split.
