Nothing about the increased[0] reliability of the z900 vs. any PC?
Nothing about the fact that the z900 can be doing a shitload of other work
while serving data at the same rate as the Wintel box?
Nothing about the fact that the z900 running Linux is not going to be every
script kiddies' bitch like the Wintel box?

[0] Kind of like a Lexus compared to a rusted-out Yugo.
