I think it's pretty amazing to see the 40th birthday of Unix get such
high-profile exposure...

So do I. Mainly because no one knows what it is or cares, so long as they have the Gates Virus.

At 40, UNIX is just getting better, stronger, cheaper, faster, but no one likes to be uncool.

If Windows makes 40, it would be a good indication of why the world is in the situation it is today.
