Mindcraft 3rd Benchmark Challenge (Score 1)

I've done many benchmarks in the past 15 years and this one appears to be a setup as proposed. I would propose: 1) The benchmark not be conducted at Microsoft labs but at a more neutral benchmark site . 2). Both OS's should start from their latest 'shrink wrapped' version and then apply any patches that are available to the PUBLIC prior to the benchmark. 3). Linux and NT workstations should be included in the mix of Win'95/98 W.S's - most enterprises are not pure Win'95/98! - volume should cover the complete range to saturation/failure. Right now it appears that Linux up against a uniquely tuned NT 4.0 Server. The NT Server itself having been stripped of all unnecessary code modules, tailored to the particular hardware, and processing tailored to handle the proposed load.
