Only one?  Have you seen the stuff that came out today regarding cryptographic 
keys embedded into some M$ software modules?  Apparently there's two of them
in w95 and 98,  and _three_ of them in NT.  Talk about back doors...

Besides that,  it's my understanding that an NT _server_ wants at least 64MB
of ram,  and is happier with 128M or more,  while you can get the same
performance out of Linux w/ 16M or so.  

I don't have an NT server because I don't have a whole pile of excess hardware 
to throw at it,  basically.  And because at this point in time I'm more
interested in functionality than in getting to know yet another package,  even 
if that other package will let me develop some marketable skills.
