Time to quote Kelly... "So to me it's either AIX or Windows (yes, you can do a lot of TSM on Windows once you get past the bigotry!). Choose whichever one you have the most experience with."

I've seen Windows Servers Choke on half the amounts of data I move every day, and I have yet to even use more than 1% of my proc, or use the swap space on my AIX box. Second from that would be Linux (because I don't know Solaris). I would avoid Windows.
