LAMP vs WIMP

[addisoncave]

Hello guys
I want know, why most of the Web developers prefer LAMP[Linux- Apache-MySQL-PHP] instead of WIMP[Windows, Microsoft Internet Information Server(IIS),MS-SQL,PHP].
Do anyone know why?

The Microsoft Web Platform Installer is a tool to install applications on a WIMP-system. LAMP is a similar stack, of entirely free software with Linux replacing Windows, and Apache HTTP Server replacing IIS. WAMP is a similar stack, with Apache replacing IIS.
