I've been surprised in the past month that the question of Linux-only vs. Free Software has come up.
Given that it's GNU/Linux and kernel specific posts are most likely the minority the precedent
seems obvious to me. But I don't know much about the people who asked.
I don't mind questions about Apache on Win7 because I expect that they are primarily about Apache
and the Win7 part would be incidental (but maybe noticeable). Of course if you ask "how do I run
Apache as a service on Win 7" then the answer is probably a) read the FAQ, and b) why the heck do
you ask a Linux group that? But I would be amused if someone had an answer.
