I support Windows toolserver. I actually proposed it already pretty long time ago.

Of course, it depends on what will be installed on it, but I guess some SBS package could solve it.

It's not the question of unwilling to learn Unix, but the question of reusability of previous work - if somebody already has something he can can use, he most probably won't want to rewrite it completely in different language.

Eg. I personally have a bunch of stuff written in ASP I could use, as well as standalone scripts in VBS/JS. There are also some useful freeware programs or libraries which could be helpful and I don't know about any Linux alternative to them (not saying it doesn't exist, but simply didn't find it).

if a toolserver running Windows were available, would anyone use it?

are there people not using the toolserver (or not as much as they'd

like) because they are unwilling to learn Unix?

any other comments?  (please, avoid comments about why we

should/shouldn't use Windows.)
