< Compare that to what Sandia was able to do with Linux and a few strung-together PII's > The Nasdaq web site is more than a few strung-together servers. I don't think it cost them tens of millions of dollars because they decided to use 20 Intel/Windows NT servers. Are you saying that if only those stupid people at Nasdaq had been smart enough to use Linux and some strung-together PII's they could have brought the project in for 1/20th the cost? I think the cost was associated with building the system, not the choice of 20 licences for NT.
