Well, take the paragraph:
"Missing from Linux are high-availability features that would let one
Linux server step in and take over if another failed; full-fledged
support for computers with multiple
processors; and a "journaling" file system that is necessary to quickly
reboot a crashed machine without having to laboriously reconstruct the
computer's system files, the study said."

Is Beowulf merely a figment of my imagination?  As well as many other
clustering solutions.  Try doing half of that with NT.

Also, my server does quite well using its dual processors -- I'm not
sure how much more support is needed to be "full-fledged?"
