In the news: ServerWatch's Review of Apache

[Mark J Cox <ma...@awe.com>]

Nice review, only slight inaccuracies:

http://serverwatch.internet.com/webreview-apache.html 

"High-end enterprise-level server for Unix and Windows 95/98/NT
platforms" 

"Pros:  Price (freeware),  Performance and robustness,  Rock-solid
reliability,  Security,  Support for the HTTP 1.1 protocol, Extensibility,
Quick tech support via Usenet newsgroup,  Streamlined interface"

"Cons:  No Mac version available,  NT version is in its infancy (still
lacks a number of the UNIX versions' performance enhancements),  Interface
lacks wizards and graphical administration tools for facilitating
configuration and administration tasks,  More extensive technical support
requires the purchase of a third-party support contract"

Same for me. Bit of a rip-off price wise :-)
