We don't run a large DB on it, but we do have some very mission critical

All of our monitoring and paging is run from linux using Nagios and OEM.
Our system that dials up all of our hotel sites to get our billing
information ($$$$$$) is linux. It's a whole lot more production ready
than MS will ever be.
