I remember in the 90's having a conversation with my friend. We were discussing Linux vs Windows for web hosting. My friend said "tell me if you can find a single porn site that's hosted on Windows." He was right, I couldn't find any.

They do exist. I run a .NET developer tools company and had a customer purchase our data access products to use with several of their porn sites.

Never did manage to see the final product though!

Worked for one that was at least in the top 5 porn sites back around 1998-99. All Windows servers running IIS and we were using NetApp appliances for storage.

How long did you spend on this "research" out of interest? :-)

Hard to say. The research was done in short bursts.

They do exist. I turned down the chance to interview at one about 6 months ago.

Sure, but IIS in 2011 is a completely different beast than IIS in the 90s.

AEBN was and might still be the largest VOD service online and they run Windows or at least they did while I was there.

Actually they are very well known. They are one of the largest adult companies on the web.
