InfoWorld article on Apache is up.
I'm surprised I didn't see this already, but the InfoWorld article on
Apache for NT is now up:
http://www.infoworld.com/cgi-bin/displayTC.pl?/reviews/980216apache.htm
Mostly positive, but here are some interesting tidbits:
"Platforms: Windows NT, Unix, Macintosh, OS/2"
"Ship Date: Mid-April"

I asked the author about this, and he says it was done by the
IW copyeditors trying to trim verbiage. Having just undergone
several months of dealing with copyeditors, I'm willing to accept
this explanation .

Well it's not nearly the dog it could be, and it's certainly "fast enough"
for the majority of web sites out there. I'm sure MS isn't going to try
and run Expedia on it any time soon :)

AHSP? Hehe. (Apache HTTP Server Project)
Apache sports several nice features that make it incredibly
attractive. First, Apache is known for its blazing speed on
Unix systems, and that same performance carries over nicely
to the NT platform.
I hate to discourage anyone from gushing over Apache on NT, but that
is a lie. The performance does not carry over nicely. Heck, how can
you call a server that can't support more than 64 simultaneous connections
scalable?
Funny how the biggest thing that any review of Apache under Unix whines
about is no GUI, but they simply (fairly) mention it in passing! And
this is on NT! Perhaps it really is true that NT people are getting
sick of pathetic GUIs.
