I'd be interested in seeing actual load simulations and the associated
performance of a 50,000 user loaded IBM 9672-X27 with collaboration
applications on par w/ Exchange. I'd also like to see an Intel based
clustered solution with a SAN factored in as an alternate solution. It may
make the scalability numbers more valuable and comparable. I also don't buy
the support numbers.
I have to say though, I was down at Linux World is SF the other week and saw
some amazing stuff on collaboration platforms. ximian for example is doing
some really cool stuff.

That's a great commercial!
I have a problem with support costing $990,000 for the Exchange/Intel
platform and $0 for the Linux one. Should I read it closer? I mean, I
could hire 1100 Hanjis or one Chenault at that rate!

Hello:
I am not advocating either side. I am just providing this as some
related reading for Exchange Admins. Maybe you can even comment on it and
let the rest of us know if you disagree with it and why.
