Hi Guys,

All the experience I have with Drupal is on Linux with PHP and mySQL. I'm working on
a project were the client has an old server, Intel Pentium 4 3.2 GHz CPU 2GB RAM
with Windows Server Standard 2003. And I'm wondering if I continue with their setup
I'm I entering a "world of pain"? Is there a big difference working on a Windows machine compare
to linux when working with Drupal?

Thanks,
Manolis

Make sure on Apache

We develop most of the Drupal projects on Window platform and deploy to Linux server when live. Drupal is working fine on Windows however may be a little slower than on Linux (not sure if it is because our Windows development platform is not dedicated for web :-).

However, one thing should be aware; never try PHP and MySQL with IIS. This combination is very slow. I can't imagine how bad it could result if running Drupal on it. Stick with Apache if you want to use Drupal, PHP and MySQL.
