Yeah, and *I'm* gonna run a mainframe-type system with
Windows NT, right? Actually, I remember reading an
article about a month ago that stated that there had
been like 8 of these systems sold worldwide... Why?
Because *people aren't dumb* and most people who know
high-end systems fully realize that a unix system is
more *robust and scaleable* (the other 2 at least
equally important) virtues I mentioned.
