May be so... Perhaps Solaris, AIX, HPUX, and even Irix will rank better for what I'm going to do... But I love Linux, and it's so much cheaper (even RHEL and SuSE is cheaper) than the real Unixes -- so while I can go with the "Enterprise Unixes", I'm more comfortable with the Linux kernel and the OS API.
Maybe you can try the Gentoo or Slackware for really stripped down Linux installations. If you're open to trying other free OSes, how about trying out BSDs? Hope this helps. _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
