Pardon me but I am new here.
May I say, I have found the 'historical arguments' get lost on kids. When the little whiper-snappers hear that computers are better now they say,
'Why don't they just fix the computers now to run 'Windows'.
The argument for not using 'Windows' on big servers is no longer due to the lack of band-with or the equivalent.
The description I give now is this.
Yes, little Johnie, it is true that big computers could run Windows if they really wanted to but there is another reason.
Have you ever noticed at home when you run 4 games and google and chat your computer gets slow? The largest part of what your computer does is make pretty windows, pictures and colors. It spends a lot of energy and time drawing all those pictures.
Well many scientists don't want to have their computer slow down because of windows, pictures and colors so they communicate with the computer using only word commands. Then the computer scientists have the computer spend all of that time and energy on their programs instead. Use all the computers power on the problem at hand, not the extras.
