	Large RAID arrays. 4-way SMP. Applications requiring large numbers of
threads. Log-based system. There's nothing I know of in any UNIX that comes
close to NT's completion ports for efficient network I/O.

	I won't bother listing NT's problems -- we all know them. But it doesn't do
us any good to ignore its strengths.
