Well, if you decide to run Windows Server, I have news for you...
What, really? I was planning on learning Windows server for educational purposes and sysadmin skills....soon....probably.... some time soon...in the near future....hopefully.... maybe.... if I have time....
Jokes aside I was going to...one day... but this just completely turns me off. WHY? Why would I tell M$ and wby would I allow a piece of software running on MY Hardware to ask me for a reason to shut it down, the sheer f**king audacity. To quote John Malkovitch from that one scene in some show where a Windows update prevents people from stopping an asteroid, meaning Earth is screwed because Windows update: "FUCK MICROSOFT!!!!"
Where are Windows servers actually being used? I've never come across one.
Exchange.
Exchange?
Microsoft Exchange. For running an email server. It's easily the most popular use for Windows servers.
