Story: Unix users up in arms at Bill Gates' knighthood
Posted by: Smithy (Friday 30 January 2004, 8:04 AM)
Bascule whines: "Scalability - 2003 running on 32 processor 8Gb RAM machines is it?. NASA run redhat on theirs, why? It does it better and it also exists in the current Mars rover.Now that's scalability "
Yeah? I see. That would explain why both Mars Rovers are currently screwed up dute to "technical problems"
Crapy linux strikes again! LOL!
As for scalability, show me the figures for even one non-clustered Linux machine at http://tpc.org/tpcc/results/tpcc_perf_results.asp?resulttype=noncluster&version=5
where 64 bit, 64 processor Windows 2003 is shooting it out with the best of them, with linux nowhere to be found!
BTW, who cares if you can run linux on a P166 64 MB PC?
Tell me, who exactly is selling such an ancient ruin of a machine today?
In fact that spec is so ancient, you are actually going to have to pay MORE money to buy such a machine, since they are going to have to dig it out of a museum first. LOL!
That point is of no relevance, its immmaterial and its incompetent!
Come up with something that actualy makes some sense will you?
