Probably more than half of the high traffic websites run their Apache as
their webserver. And use ipfw as their firewall.
You get both on every single Mac OS X installation, for free.
Mac Servers are cheaper than Dell's.
Mac Servers are most likely the easiest to administer Unix servers.

No wonder, Apple has increased its market share.
Just because everyone does it, does not necessarily mean it is a better
solution.

Do the comparison, have a look at the software and use it. If after that
you come to the conclusion that a PC under Windows is the better
solution, then by all means go that route. If not, you may find a better
way to do things with Mac OS X. You might be pleasently surprised.

I keep trying Macs at the Apple stores. Just about everything I try to
do on a Mac seems to take more clicks than it does on a PC, plus there
seems to be much more in the way of "overlay" on Macs to keep users out
of the system.

I do like the way Macs look, though. But their bits and pieces are way
overpriced on the desktop machines.
