Fahd,
There will be no single OS that will satisfy everyone. I have just
found that running Oracle on Windows is more difficult than on unix.
UNLESS you are not knowledgeable with unix and do not have time to get
up to speed.
For some smaller companies, I can see Windows appearing to be abetter
choice. But once you add Oracle to the mix, you will already need some
expertise, moving to unix/oracle is probably worth seriously
considering.
I use linux extensively at home and somewhat at work although most of
my production databases are running on Tru64 or AIX. I do not use the
ability to extend linux, but I still use that for my primary OS at home.
Good luck
Stephen

The reason to use WIN2K is that we have trust in windows2k (odd?)
because we
have been using it for 5 years now , it hasnt given us any significant
problems. We are really skeptic about Linux (open source? we dont have
resources and need to read,alter and extend its open source code) and
Solaris promises no future. What else is available except windows.
regards,
Fahd
