There was a small flurry of news recently about an announcement that Windows can now run on an amazing number of 256 processors. Wow! Compared to Linux's capability to run on 4096 CPUs (IIRC) it sure seems a lot... ;)

Hey, Windows is scalable! It crashes just as well on any number of CPUs. :P

I scaled the window, climbed out and never went back.

And if it's on today's hardware, it's probably pretty fast, too!
