It's a bit odd that they didn't compare it with *BSD. Could it be because they OS X *is* *BSD, and they don't want it to get out that there's no need to pay $499 for it?
Also odd that they used different benchmark programs on different servers.
Why didn't they run the benchmark agains LinuxPPC on the same box?
Jini is already available for free download from Sun It's all done in a few thousand lines of publicly available Java source code. It uses TCP/IP. The protocol that it uses on top of TCP/IP is clearly specified rather than "de-commoditized". We're allowed to modify the source. It works.
