No, but they aren't a toy either - while they are closed source, and
trying to force you to their world as much as possible and restricting
freedom (like upgrading your machine when running XP) and a monopolist
blatantly using their force in the desktop market to increase adoption
of new products (hailstorm, IE, original NT server etc), NT isn't just
a toy anymore. 

All I'm pointing out is that Red Hat Linux does cut in at enterprise
level e-commerce cites (we're powering a few of those) - some may not
like the product, more don't like Red Hat, but Red Hat Linux is  a
good and valid alternative. Whether is right for you, depend on your
needs, sum you're willing to spend (few things beat Sun Starfire :)
and the expertise you have or can build up.
