Cray CX keyrir Windows....

Cray.....er það ekki bara Mainframe sem er notað til að reikna út hveru margar kjarnorkusprengjur þarf til að eyða öllu lífi á jörðinni?

Vissulega... en nú er Microsoft komið inn á mainframe markaðinn með Windows HPC

"Windows HPC Server 2008, in combination with the Cray CX1 supercomputer, will provide outstanding sustained performance on applications," said Vince Mendillo, director, HPC at Microsoft Corp. "This combined solution will enable companies in various sectors to unify their Windows desktop and server workflows. Many Microsoft financial services customers, for example, want to unify back-office modeling and simulation with the work of front-office trading desks."

Meira að segja erkióvinurinn Sun er nú einnig farið að bjóða upp á X64 Windows netþjóna....

"I'm very excited Sun is becoming a Windows Server OEM," Microsoft's vice president of server and tools marketing Andy Lees said during a Wednesday press conference. "The Sun hardware platform [provides] an excellent, solid footing for Windows computing."
