Well... Take a look at Caldera's home-page: http://www.caldera.com/products/ They DO sell their Linux (aka. Caldera Network Desktop). When one can run Caldera's Linux on his machine, there is no need to pay $500 for a OS that is less stable, but instead has other nice features --- features he will never need, when he just wants to run database. Look at http://www.softwareag.com/ADABASD/a-ux-pr.htm SAG, made their database available for Linux: Software AG's ADABAS D Will Be First Full-Function Database Available on Caldera's Linux Operating System Leading Price/Performance, Easy-to-Use RDBMS Now Available for the Popular Caldera Network Desktop... From my understanding, if you want to run "real applications", Linux should be your choice, when performance is required. >On Intel you can run Windows NT, Solaris, Gee, come on, you don't want do buy "cripple ware", which is limmited to about 10 IP connections at a time, do you? :^) Jost (No flames please...)
