Hear, hear!  Saying Apache for Win32 is "not as stable as the UNIX
version" is like saying it's not as solid as a block of granite.  Unless
you're planning to trick out Apache with every convoluted directive under
the sun, it will do what you need, including--saints forfend!--ASP.

BTW, does anyone know the timeline for Apache 2.0?  It's been in beta
forever.  That's the version that's really focusing on other-than-Unix
platforms.
