Windows Server 2003 better than Linux (Inquirer)

I too would have liked to see a Samba on XFS benchmark
in this test. That would have actually been interesting.
ext3 ain't that fast. Robust, yes. Fast, no. ext2 is,
or rather IMHE much faster.

I did like like the tone of the article. I really enjoy
reading this guys stuff.

One issue I did have with the article was the mention
of RH Enterprise Edition as being cost equivalent with
Win twenty ought three. Not so. RHEE is not cheap, but
it still has Win-whatever beat to death over those
wonderful things known as CALS and other associated
nasty creeping costs. This point was very misleading.
