I see on the streaming news (no URL, but attributed to the WSJ) that Unisys has responded to the item about their use of Unix to tout Windows: "Guy Esnouf, a spokesman for Unisys, said the campaign is intended to highlight a high-end Unisys machine called the ES7000 Enterprise Server, an expensive system running sophisticated corporate-computing applications, such as very large data bases. 'We are talking about using Windows for those kinds of problems; we are not talking about hosting a simple Web site,' he said." If I understand that correctly, they're saying you should host your simple stuff on Unix, but for the big jobs (which should be able to support Unix professionals, I would have thought), Windows is preferred.
