In this article: http://cnn.com/TECH/computing/9911/22/solaris8.ent.idg/index.html it was claimed that "data centers running Windows 2000 will cost one-fifth to one-third of the price of a Unix-based system and will also offer customers significant savings over Unix in terms of TC0." Is this possible? I thought the reason many companies were going back to Unix was because of lower costs? Or is this just referring to commercial Unix? And since when has M$ offered value as one of its selling points? -=> jm <=- "Do not taunt the Happy Fun Ball."
