Interesting but the recent Top500 report says that 2003/2004 was the
year of the switch to Linux - so by 2008 I would have expected them to
be using Linux.

The most recent presentation doesn't mention Linux - just everything
that it has been possible to build on top of it:

BTW this was published just before Edward Snowden's revelations.
