Why use Linux?

Java limitation on Windows is 1,792 megs of ram.

Linux none that I know of.

I disegree with this point:

3. You're generally stuck with VGA consoles and network KVMs instead of serial terminals - no real console logging, poor or no remote access. Even if you're lucky enough to get a serial terminal server you'll have to get on the VGA console for some hardware configuration or diagnostic CDs

I installed Linux (Debian) over serial lines. Debian-installer's syslinux is configured to start over serial and when the network is up you can switch to ssh. I also have a headless Linux server with Mandriva, but, I must admit, I needed a monitor+keyboard to install it.
