- Windows sysadmins are cheap, abundant, and ineffective. - Unix sysadmins are expensive, rare, and effective.
This is true, but even more so *nix systems don't fall over as often.
It's the classic sysadmin's dilemma. MS-Windows admins are running around like headless chooks trying to put out brush fires caused by poor choice of operating system, whereas *nix admins don't look like they have to work very hard at all - because the problems are fewer and easier to fix (giving them more time to deal with even more complex problems).
From where I am I have seen many examples that are contrary to your stereotypes.
And what exactly is the dilemma - to be effective or ineffective, or cheap or not?
