I'm 31, Dutch, and when I read KPN, I think of Khan Process Networks. KPN should have gone bankrupt about ten years ago. They are the old state telecommunications company, and twenty years after privatization they still rank among the most evil ISP's, and they seem to get worse every week.
I remember them blocking all incoming and outgoing traffic to port 25 without prior notice, even on business DSL lines. I remember them illegaly refusing colocation to competing ISP's on their state-built infrastructure, expoiting their monopoly to suppress competition. I remember them refusing to release domainnames I registered by them, because they said they now owned the domain... I remember them selling expensive DSL lines with more than 1:200 overbooking, resulting in oversaturated dog-slow connections any time a day, then bullying complaining customers.... That kind of things. and now DPI.
Gets the size of all subdirectories relative to `pwd`, writes the size in blocks and sorts them from big to small. Very useful to find deeply nested directories stuffed with old and forgotten.iso's of Debian Potato.

Everytime a new Debian version gets frozen, hell freezes over as well.
Will Window 7 be able to show file extensions out of the box? Or will it keep on tricking its users to install spyware?
Another 'du' variant:
du -mb | sort -rsg | less

I love doing:
wget -qO- http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/4.0_r5/i386/iso-cd/debian-40r5-i386-netinst.iso | cdrecord
Straight from the net to my cd-burner. Try to do that with Windows...

Indeed, OS/2 uses ring 2 and 3 of the x86 processors, rendering OS/2 non-portable and non-virtualizable without major effort.
