What are you talking about? For all practical purposes, Linux is unix, just as BSD 386 is unix, just as Solaris 386 is unix, and so on.

There really isn't any Intel-based hardware that can compete with the higher-end unix machines like HP's Superdome or Sun's 10000, which are pretty much mainframes for all intents and purposes, and what with IBM empowering their older 370 architecture with Linux, there's no reason to believe that the high-end is an area where Windows will get any play at all.
