And if you're bored, hop on IRC or something. Or use an instant messenger. A message board won't be very entertaining. :)

Has anyone else heard about the accusations that Linus Trabald (Pardon my spelling) didn't write Linix? I think it's a bunch of BS, personally.
I also find is amusing that the first 2 examples of 'why unix is better' both origionate from seattle... (Costco and Safeco Field).

Just because Mac OS X is build around unix doesn't make it better. And I say that as a recent convert to mac (As soon as I get a new HD, that is...)

Jayhawk Dragoon Posted: 21 May 2004 21:22 GMT Total Posts: 80 | For what it's worth, OS X is NOT based on UNIX. And certainly not based off anything SCO did. OS X is based off of BSD, which is something completely different and very free. AT&T, one of the previous owners of UNIX at one point sued the University of California and BSDi. The suit ended up dragging out for a long time and was settled out of court. It was an embarrassment to AT&T, too. Among the decisions from that, BSD cannot call itself UNIX. Also, BSD is not based off UNIX, although it could be described as UNIX-like.
Oh, and the Safeco Field example is yet another reason to root against the Mariners and for the Yankees. :) |
