        (And you know, I'm feeling generous, so I'll go ahead and
        tell you that this statement is wrong too:

        Sun was founded by guys from Standford (*S*tanford *U*niversity
        *N*etwork) and the first operating system they put out was
        based on System 7.  They didn't do a BSD style OS until later.)

        I'm certain there are mailing lists that you can talk about
        unix in a more informed manner on.
