"IIS is better than Apache beacuse IIS is free"

http://www.foxnews.com/views/dadekian/index.sml says:

 When you buy an Intel or Alpha box today, the
 WindowsNT server software that comes with it
 contains Microsoft's Internet Information Server (IIS).

 Much as Microsoft has crowded out the competition by
 bundling Internet Explorer with Windows, IIS has
 pretty much removed the need for buying other
 companies' Web server software. 

 That's not to say that there aren't alternatives to NT
 Web server software out there (most notably by
 Netscape and Apache), but as is usually the case, free is
 very cost-effective and inviting. 

Hahahahahahahah.  Good joke.
