	See some of Matt Dillon's comments regarding Linux.  Our memory 
management scheme beats the crap out of theirs, although their SMP is 
ahead of ours.

	I think our network stack still beats theirs, but maybe 2.3 
really does fix some of those problems -- I wonder if the folks at 
NFS, the authors of ntop, and Darren Reed (author of IP filter) have 
any thoughts on that.

     Unix is like a wigwam -- no Gates, no Windows, and an Apache inside.
      Unix is very user-friendly.  It's just picky who its friends are.
