I agree with @scottalanmiller on this. I would definitely consider appliances as linux servers because they are 100% servers.
A server is:
a computer or computer program that manages access to a centralized resource or service in a network.They are generally running an offshoot of a major distro, so how aren't they servers?
well, if we're going to go down this road, than many of us have dozens of servers, and most of us probably find that we have 'nix that Windows by a long shot!.
Is that what the OP was looking for? eh @IRJ? is that what you wanted to know?
I guess I have to add XS server and ESXi server and my Buffalo NAS, and my Mitel VOIP server (no clue, but I would assume a 'nix unpinning), etc.
I was just curious to see what other environments looked like. I didn't need anything in particular answered.

A very ecumenical answer, lol.

100%
Does that mean no NAS or any sort of appliances?
-
@scottalanmiller True, I must say I really didn't think about it in depth
-
@scottalanmiller 99% Windows

All server all Windows but 2, about 95%.
-
Currently 2 win, 1 phys and 1 vm, and 4 linux vm excluding hosts (xen/kvm). Going to have 8/9 linuxes and 3+1 windows in next months, say april.
Use Windows only when our required software can't run elsewhere.
You have to add 3 phys linuxes if you count nas stuff and pbx. -
