That hits what I don't like about O'Reilly Book topics - they are to focused on the scripting/web business. There may be 20+ Perl books of ORA, but look at their dust C/C++/Fortran95 corner.
I was so dissapointed about ORA, when I found out that they did not want to accompany me in these compiled languages, which are the foundations of any High Performance Computing and especially of many very important open source projects.
Please write more about compiled languages that have performance for numerical number crunching and compile tools...... otherwise I really am a big fan of ORA. Congratulations!
The only thing I know about TCO and Linux is that all Student Communities at my University (about 33.000 Students) built up their own Network and Server Infrastructure on Linux. That is Web-,Mail-,SMB-,DHCP-,Database-,SSL-,Application-, NewsServers etc. and Firewalls and many more. Some even have it on their desktop.
Doesn't it say a lot about TCO if low-budget-students built up all their Computing needs on Linux?

... thought the Openfirmware was something similar to the Bios in the PC world. What is the difference? OpenFirmWare is still there anyway.
Stupid you :-) - I read it in the store :-)
