| So where does Windows fit in?
|
| Windows has a lot to offer design engineers, especially those with
| more limited resources or goals. UNIX still has a lot to offer for
| many legacy HPC applications. Both Windows and UNIX require more
| work to be able to deliver the same functionality and compelling
| price-performance value of Linux. The HPC market is more open and
| competitive than it has ever been, but for design engineers focusing
| on solving their design challenges, it's clear that Linux is still
| the best choice for today and the foreseeable future.
