I can attest to this. I was a part owner in a huge BBS in Victoria in the mid 90's we had 64 phone lines all through glactic boxes and 5 different servers all of which were linux run. while this was a pain in the butt we had a couple people who were wizzards with linux and made it work for us and left it simple enuf for us to run. with the new windows server software available today it would have been much simpler in my opinion.
