I have a fondness for Plan9 and it definitely has its place in a data center. It's a wonderful system for anything distributed, but you have to admit, a large portion of their user base is the "get off my porch" unix users. I mean, those guys have a ridiculous superiority complex.
Clearly you like "underground operating systems". Where will you go when BSD becomes popular and everybody's heard of it? Plan 9? Enough with the "get off my porch" mentality. I 3 BSD and Linux. Linux for the hardware support, and BSD for the lightweight simplicity, init script style (which slackware modeled itself after), ports system (which gentoo modeled itself after), and ZFS support. Oh and licensing too.
Every time one of these awful exploits are found, it seems majority of them are Redhat vulnerabilities (with the exception of the recent Debian hole). What's up with that?
Firewire 800 is how old, and is how fast? About 6.25 Gbps? Seriously, get with the program IEEE, don't bastardize your fast standards while allowing the market to lovingly adopt your slow child.

I believe it's Nehalem you're referring to. And yes, it will be epic.
Lol, is that a wacom tablet in that photo?

errr, now I feel stupid, the given speed is in Mbps, not MBps like I thought I remembered it being. Ah well.
