I'm pretty certain that these servers are all Apple XServe G5s running WebObjects as their content management software, although I'm sure a lot of the software is written, or at least adapted, for in-house use.

I remember reading about a "probe" carried out by some people much more technically savvy than me, who tested the web servers used by several major IT companies. Sun was found to be running as many as a third of their servers on Windows, while Microsoft was found to be running around 10% of their servers on Linux. Apple, however, passed without embarrassment, all scans indicating their servers were pure Apple hardware and software.
