I suppose that's mostly snobbery on my part. These days there's probably as much difference between, say, Sun Solaris and IBM AIX as there is between Linux and either of them. It's just Linux can't trace a direct heritage back through SysV Rel 3, 4.2BSD, and Version 7. Not that there's much common code left anymore. Right now, Linux seems to have more "mindshare" than all the Unices put together, and gaining. For a nostalgic old guy like me that's a little sad. Sorry, I suppose that's off topic. -- Remember, more computing power was thrown away last week than existed in the world in 1982. -- http://www.tom.womack.net/computing/prices.html _______________________________________________ Newbie mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
