So why havent we seen NT scale effectively beyond 2 processors? I have run into several ERP customers who admit have made a mistake by buying into the NT hype and deployed on PC servers (they will migrate to unix on intel since they cant scrap their investment in intel hardware)- NT 5.0's delays likely into the year 2000 was the final straw since they were basically buying promises. Intel's agreement with Sun around Solaris for Merced is further proof that the industry doesnt believe Microsoft's lies especially when their business is counting on it. Microsoft cant do business as usual when theres viable alternatives for business customers since they dont have a monopoly to squeeze out competion like they did on the desktop.
