IBM Wants Linux
·
· Score: 1
I agree with njug in that the Linux kernel performs bad on non-intel, multi-processor as well as on shared memory SMPs platforms. That should not be much
of a problem. Agreed, SMP support for machines with 4 processors should be enough for most
budget conscious people. If you want support for 64+ SMPs!!! go for Solaris. We really don't
have a problem, Linux clusters are a very good solution for anyone who wants affordable power.
Of course, work is underway to make Linux upto par with the high-end heavy-weights.
Nevertheless, Linux should not try to become everything for everyone (oooh, I hope I got my point across)
But, then these are all just my opinion. My point is we should
not take such comments to heart. Its all hunky-dory in (on!?) LinuxLand:-)
I am really sad that people like Mr. Mehta is held at such high
esteem by Indian computer "pros". The guy doesn't even know the
true meaning of hacker. He really has made a complete
jackass of himself, he believes the 14-19 yr. olds are going to
protect the govt. servers from really determined and technically
proficient crackers who are unquestionably "brilliance gone wrong!"
, well, he is in for a big surprise. The true fact is that talented
Indian security professionals don't want to work for the govt.
because they are completely disillusioned with the whole Indian
system - it justs sucks BAD!!! The situation is so bad that the
govt. has to hire script kiddies for such jobs. As usual the
govt. is trying to save money; like what would little 14yr. old
W3D0wn want as a salary maybe a years supply of candy! Come to
think of it the govt. has shown brilliance in this matter. At least
they are doing something right.
Here come the Indian Cyber Cops beware or they will cry MOMMY!!!
MOMMY!!!

PS: I'm seriously considering the idea of collecting all information
regarding the term "hacker" and posting them to Mr. Mehta. Any help
in this regard will be highly appreciated.
