No, slashdot has not slipped (but then, I stopped reading it a few
years ago, and the comments there have always been most depressing).

But the world has pretty much forgotten Plan 9 even exists (and lets
not even mention Inferno). In a story about 9vx in reddit.com (where
supposedly all the cool kids hang out this days) somebody mentioned
'last I got interested in Plan 9 you had to pay a few hundred bucks to
get a copy' (or something to that effect).

So, that is what anti-propaganda brings you, but at least you don't
have to deal with clueless users... oh wait, never mind.
