    ..really any point upgrading? 2.6 should be out in a couple of weeks.

      Your assumptions here seem to be more like guesses, you obviously don't follow the kernel development particularly closely, nor test pre releases, 2.6.0-test10 fuctioned perfectly well for me in my test environment, but I haven't tried 2.6.0-test11 yet so you could have a point, but I don't think so. I don't think you're on top of your game.

    I've noticed that even with 2.6 kernel my Linux just dies when execute couple fork bombs. But Windows 2000 doesn't die on them. After 20-30 opened windows it says that there isn't any resources left and I can logout and then continue working. It seems that Win2k is great improvement for me..
