Microsoft/Unisys Unix-bashing Site Runs FreeBSD
Several people sent in variations on this: "Kind of ironic to see that the the site, dubbed WeHaveTheWayOut from Microsoft and Unisys runs on an Apache Web server powered by FreeBSD. This could have made a great April Fools joke, unfortunately for Microsoft, you can verify it by using Netcraft." This is a follow-up to the original story a few days ago. Other readers noted that there's already a WeHaveTheWayIn site up. Wehavethewayout.com was returning Apache headers yesterday; today it's returning "Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0", so it appears they've dumped FreeBSD in a hurry, or maybe just changed the headers.
Where's my mod points today. This is the most insightful comment I've seen in a while. It simply shows that the marketing droids got the techs to move the domainto a new server, one that runs that abomination of a web sieve^h^h^h^herver IIS. Why is this whole thing so hard to grasp? Obviously M$ and Unisys were caught with their pants down, fondling each other. We all know that Apache on an OSS OS is the RIGHT THING, so let's just laugh at the corporate imbeciles and get on with undermining the evil empire.
On a different topic, I just got a Neoware EON4000S terminal client along with about 6 other terminal brands for an eval I'm doing. Does anyone know what Linux distro they run on the Neoware terminals? I haven't been able to get to the command line on my test terminal yet. All of the other terminals are running NTe or CE. Yuck'o'rama.
