Dear JDN,

It's not just a case of scale up. Look also at scale out. It is often easier to link machines together to provide resilience and load balancing - as in Windows Load Balancing Services. This is how Compaq whooped Sun's ass (and the asses of all the UNIX vendors) in the TPC audited benchmarks last year.
