I have successfully deployed Django on Windows[1] systems for critical intranet apps and have at least two more Django on Windows projects in the pipes.

No it is not an ideal platform but sometimes factors outside your control make it the best/only option if you want to use Django/Python. I work in a largeish very Microsoft dependent hospital and getting infrastructure support (hardware, database backups etc) from the IT department requires a Microsoft stack.

Being able to deploy a Django project on either Linux or Windows systems from a single code base is a pretty big advantage for me.
