Big Deal!

GoDaddy paid or was paid for something, and they implemented it.

Nice insertion of a double entendre! Do you have ANYTHING to backup the assertion that Microsoft paid GoDaddy to switch? Can you even prove that GoDaddy got a really good price on the software? Of course not!

who cares? It just means Microsoft Software is being used to host domains that have no content of value.

I care because I have been hearing this tired old mantra about how much better Linux is than Windows at everything including slicing bread but, especially web hosting. And if that is true, this switch, by major web host, move makes no sense at all. If Linux is cheaper, better, more secure and easier to manage then why stop using it in favor of a more costly solution? Are you saying that Linux not capable of hosting 'valueless content'? Or are you saying that Linux so 1337 that it cannot sully its hands on such 'unworthy content'?

The fact that GoDaddy would switch from Linux to Windows to host anything at all screams volumes to me! It's a big deal! The fact that you can't see that or are unwilling to admit it says a lot about you.
