What's the success rate on the combination of Perl and Win2k in a production environment, offering both Linux and Win2k solutions for both production and development environments is my hope for the near future. I've never used perl on Win32 systems. Therefore what kind of major snags and differences between the UNIX and WIN environments should I expect?

I realize that this may be a FAQ, but a smooth transition (to running both) is what I hope for, and who better to ask than the "experienced" ones.

Any good documentation anyone can point me to? Not the docs that come with the distros, but some experiences others may have had in using Win2k and Perl on a production machine?
