JC - actually, we don't have to guess. The total number of servers running either Win2K or NT is about 2 million annually - that represents servers of all classes, but the majority are small departmental file and print (which is one reason you won't see them on Netcraft). That translates to about 5500 servers a day.

For twister's reference, that is about 40 servers in 10 minutes, a long way from 1000.

SUNW's numbers are very respectable in unit terms, and they are probably already the #2 vendor of server operating systems on a unit basis. A few years ago, no one would have predicted that Solaris would unseat the other "volume" OS products (Novell and SCO Unix).
