  1. Re:Rivalry in the area on NCSU/Red Hat "Open Source University" · · Score: 1

    You have a good memory! Gibbs was a Convex
    that, uh, frustrated a lot of folks. After it
    was decommissioned it was sitting in the hall
    outside my office. I kept hearing these loud
    bangs that I couldn't figure out. Turned out
    it was users *kicking* it on their way by!

    The campus mail system used to be all AIX but
    we now use AIX primarily for our AFS fileservers
    and backup machines.

    We have at least one of almost everything here
    in my dept (one of the best things about working
    for a university he said writing from an SGI)
    but HP-UX is a notable exception. CS dept used
    to have a lot of HP-UX...think that's dwindled
    as of late though.

    I showed you Solaris!? You'll have to stop by
    some time and catch up.

    Our shell accounts at UNC are on AIX boxes.
    All of our incoming mail is courtesy of Linux. :-)

    But the majority of the mail complex is Solaris,
    including everyone's mailboxes.

    I think I can say that definitively as I run the
    campus mail systems here at UNC.
