There is always the wonder of ActivePerl (from
ActiveState)
which works under Win32 (Win9x and NT) and which can be plugged
into IIS or run standalone (also as CGI under any Win32 webserver).
That way J'oe could keep his Win32 environment and you could
use Perl for your scripts - even in ASPs, if that's
a matter.
Note that the Penguin is not the be-all end-all
thing, and many people are rightfully reluctant towards the
Penguin because of its followers - be careful and know
the Linux-Advocacy-Howto if you think about promoting
Linux. But I think promoting Linux is plain the wrong path.
Perl and administration is always the question of the
right tool for the task - and Linux is just a vessel Perl runs
on, just like Win32.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
