Here's a blurp from the ORCL thread that validates SGI's downscaling into the realms of NT: Database server growth in North America alone showed a much healthier 34% growth, even if a sizeable share of that growth came from products running on Microsoft Corp.'s (MSFT) Windows NT operating system instead of Oracle's traditional platform, Unix. Growth of Windows NT-based products was 130% year over year, analysts said. Applications sales also expanded strongly, logging 30% worldwide growth compared with 7% in the second quarter. -30- Your reflections in regard to the demise of Detroit's gas-guzzling retro-stylish "big iron" may perversely parallel the move to NT.
