> So show me win 2003/2008 for sparc... I think there is a version of Windows Server 2003 for those big HP-UX Itanium boxes:
http://www.microsoft.com/servers/64bit/itanium/overview.mspx I think it's called "Windows Server 2003 Datacenter Edition" and Microsoft claims that it scales to 512 processors and 1,000 terrabytes of RAM or some B.S.? I heard that it's probably the second most expensive server operating system out there after maybe IBM's Mainframe stuff (i.e. z/OS and friends) which I think we can all agree is the most expensive platform to run a server on.... but HP-UX and Windows Server 2003 Datacenter for Itanium are way up there in terms of cost. Microsoft does not even publicly post the price for Windows Server 2003 Itanium, because if you have to ask how much it costs... you can't afford it. I personally can't see why anyone would use Windoze for anything else besides playing video games and collecting viruses anyway. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
