Hi all,

What are the pros and cons of using either linux or tru64 on a cluster
of alpha equipped nodes? I realize that one reason for using linux is
the fact that it is free, but apart from that? If one can afford it,
would the cluster in some sense be "better" if loaded with tru64?

Thanks,

/jon
