The thought of a stock exchange running on Windows is scary in and of itself. And I’m a windows user!

Good to know they won’t be getting the “Blue Stock Exchange of Death” screen on their trading workstations anymore...

I wonder if the kernel is One from Linus Torvalds...or one from BSD?
Or if Canonical , Red Hat,, Novell are providing any support...or could be IBM...
Would be interesting to have some underlying detail...

I used AIX, Solaris, a couple of Linux builds, and HPUX for years (though thankfully not for the last 3 yrs). All tend to be MUCH more stable than Windows of any flavor. However, if anyone believes Unix/Linux systems don’t crash, they obviously don’t know much about operating systems. I’ve had some really nasty, time consuming, application killing Unix/Linux-based system crashes.

London Stock Exchange dumps Windows for Linux,

Our company is looking at options for replacing our current software package and anything we look at has to run on a UNIX variant. If all you have is Windows based, it is a non-starter. PERIOD!
