Windows server compared to any linux server os is extraordinarily inferior in every regard except for the AD Domain services interface, which is a leftover from probably Windows NT that they haven't screwed with in the interim so it still functions.

The funniest part about Windows Server licensing that I find is the requirement to have CALs (Client Access Licenses) - $5/mo a pop for each device using _any_ service provided by the Windows Server.

You run your Windows Server as a DHCP server? That's $5/mo for the clients to get a DHCP lease.

Of course, one CAL covers all services for the entire client, but it's still funny to me.
