REAL Unix systems do not run on PC hardware. End of discussion.

Within five years or so, a large proportion of the UNIX world will be on 64-bit Intel and AMD. Even Sun is porting Solaris to Itanium, just in case.

And AMD's SledgeHammer isn't going to do SMP--it will do 8-way NUMA.

I just saw a NUMA presentation by the IBMers in Redmond yesterday.

Got any stock tips for me that I can purchase now to roll over in five years?
