The Mindcraft study proves that you might get adequate perfomance from NT if you lavish hardware on it. Quad Xeons and a gig of RAM could get the NT servers on my network up to speed. Perhaps NT's design flaws are intended to push us toward high end machines and pricey upgrades!
The point has already been made, but I will make it again -- I get better performance from a cheap PC running Linux than I do from the expensive boxes I have running NT.
[but what room do I have to talk? I got sick or RedHat and decided to try out FreeBSD for awhile.]
