->Lot of negative can be spoken about WinServer, the cost, the support for
->the bbs dos version, etc. But as a WebServer it is fantastic and is
->well supported and has been developed well over the years.
->
->I use as my main web server and I still run the bbs even though that
->portion has not been supported in years or any kind of update or
->development.
->
->I bought the community version which was a two node system and have over
->time purchased up to 12 nodes. That initial cost was around 200.00, I
->was retired and had the money to invest. No regrets. I do regret
->spending so much on the annual subscription to get updates, but then
->again the web portion actively being developed.
->
->However as of late, it has slowed down to a crawl. But the WinServer
->web is strong also and very flexible in configuration.

->My .02, hopefully I am not to bashed in the head to much.
