Comment ISAPI = Lipstick on Ferrari (Score 2, Informative) 160

Play on words here... Maybe its Lipstick on a pigs platform, as IIS SUCKS balls.

ISAPI == worthless in the context of using it for Apache. Most of its 'features' are well implemented in Apache with no need for ISAPI unless you're running very specialized apps that make extensive use of ISAPI.

My background? 27 years old, 27 years in the solar energy field. Father has been in it for 30 years. I'm now the IT Manager for http://www.solarenergy.com/
