Linux wins in every case, the only disadvantage is that you really need to
know the basics of unix, then again that goes with any operating system.

As you can see the machines that have been setup run like a dream, the
only machines that are rebooted are the gateway machines and the news

Because they don't keep up with operating systems as they are glued to
