Pixar Animation Studios, which brought the world 'Monsters Inc.' and 'Toy 
Story,' is switching from Sun Microsystems to Intel, as the melodrama in the 
server market heats up.

The Emeryville, Calif.-based film studio is replacing servers from Sun in 
its 'render farm'--a bank of servers that fuses artists' images into 
finished film frames--with eight new blade servers from RackSaver. In all,

the open-source Linux operating system.

Make lunch, not war.
