Here's what a hospital in my town does: Linux 2.6-test1 with a PHP/MySQL database, light-control, and a system that tells you when it's time to change the hard drive. Costs much very little, and it's much more stable compared to Windows.

I wouldn't like a BSOD to end my life because Windows controls the PSU units when the power is down.

I read that the National health service would make upto 800,000 installs

but a couple of days ago they said Sun had MADE a deal for 500,000 installs in the British public sector, are these the same things??

Nope    This is probably what I just posted about in the Linux section. The more the merrier!
