My /dev/null actually just cats to /lost+found/RecycleBin. That way, I don't actually delete anything when I delete something. If I REALLY want to get rid of something, and I'm absolutely sure, I use /dev/null2.

So a big green circle is a trademark infringement. I guess the next step is for goto.com to sue every state, county, and municipality for having green traffic lights.

And what about all the "hotfixes" you have to install to get the service pack to work? I had NT on my box long ago and after installing service pack 3, all I could do was boot to the blue screen of death. Apparently, SP3 didn't like my virus scanner (McAffee or Dr. Sol, I can't remember) I had to reinstall NT, reinstall SP3, install the hotfixes (3 of them, I think), and then reinstall the av. 21 RPMS==30 seconds while one service pack (and all the other related BS)==4 hours. &ltsarcasm&gtYup, sure looks like NT is the solution for me.&lt/sarcasm&gt

Actually, does NT even offer NFS shares?

So NT outperforms Linux on Windows(Samba) shares. I wonder how NT performs on Linux(ext2) shares.

Let's just hope that Al Gore doesn't register it.
