Actually, I have ran NT on 8 processor machines. You have to use a OEM version of NT. Benchmarks that have been run shows some scalabilty, not as good as UNIX but it is scaleable. The numbers I have seen are: 4 CPUS - 1.00x 8 CPUS - 1.60x NT 5.0 is rumored to scale well to 32 processors. I work everyday with both NT and UNIX. I have worked in UNIX for over 15 years and still prefer UNIX to NT. I have to agree with an earlier post, I wouldn't get on an airplane if it was controlled by NT...
