Redis for win32 and the Microsoft patch

I think that outside of larger enterprises with EA's, Microsoft is losing traction. So it's broader than just web startups.

But inside of many big corporate and government environments, Windows rules the roost. I think there's a good reason for that -- Microsoft enterprise stuff usually works. In big orgs, Linux/Unix is associated with "big iron" , "big dollar" nightmares from Oracle, CA, etc.

Huh... you're kinda wrong. Microsoft has never been stronger in server market and it's one of the platforms where their penetration is growing.

Yeah... in enterprises. They are displacing big-iron Unix, just like I said.

I am not saying it's true or not, but do you have data points?
