Solaris cheaper and better than NT

The Standish group has an interesting comparative review between NT and Solaris. Solaris wins hands down... and is cheaper for large numbers of users due to NT's per-seat licensing. Availability (computer not dead) and scalability (real multiprocessing) were other areas where Solaris scored well.
