Microsoft – From the perspective of ISP owner

Matt Heaton writes a well-thought post about dealing with Microsoft in the ISP space. I worked for an ISP in Seattle that would never have considered adding Microsoft software to our data center. It was considered too insecure and too expensive. But that was 10 years ago.

But, as Matt writes, many of his customers are asking for a hosted Microsoft Exchange solution. It appears Microsoft has addressed, at least to some degree, the security issues but not the cost issues.
