yes, standardization of Linux as you speak of would be a fantastic thing
Oracle can already run on other flavors of Linux than Red Hat, and at least one of the open source BSD's. As for SUPPORTED distros, there's 3 others besides RedHat - Suse ES, Conectiva ES, TurboLinux ES.
Robustness is here for the big enterprise app with Oracle RAC. With 10g we'll have Oracle grid computing for Linux: "unbreakable Linux" is what Oracle calls it.
Processor affinity is here already in 2.6, and also exists in Red Hat advanced server
Talking about N1 type computing is interesting, but it isn't here yet. Who's to say Linux won't evolve a similar thing FASTER than the commercial vendors can??
There are already boxes that are sold with hot swap memory, network card failover, SMP CPU failover, etc. for Linux.
I'm telling ya, Linux is rocketing right on by the commercial Unixes.
it could even be the crash of a much more mundane & ordinary craft or dumped cargo/weapons and there could be a hundred reasons why such an event would be classified. I must admit I'm amused that people think an advanced race of beings could manage light years of travel, but make atmospheric vehicles that are so unreliable they fall out of the sky like humans who've only had powered flying machines for 80 years. Pfffft. Face it, we've never been visited or contacted by any other race of creatures. Get over it.
very true. In this case, there were some industry standard benchmarks run, and then some of the client's processes. The main point is that 32 bit Intel boxes are a big threat to Sun's low and mid-range for many applications. As Linux & the open source BSD's gain High Availability, distributed lock manager, finer grained SMP (all probably in less than 2 years), I think the commercial Unixes will be killed off.
funny in the pilot Linux/Oracle project I just did for a *very large* midwestern city that a 4 way Intel Xeon box outperformed a 14-way SunFire 6800 by a factor of 3, even with the much smaller 2G SGA & contortions an Intel chip has to go through to get to >4GB memory chunks
*something* is killing Sun, and they can't survive on just their 8-way or more system sales. Wait until the finer grain SMP in Linux & FreeBSD get perfected.....
Windows apps can eat all that up, but I'm curious about the people who say they would like to run Linux and 512M isn't enough? I mean, good grief, I build and test Oracle apps with 256M RAM (only stressful thing about that is the initial oracle installation, during which it will page out a gig. But after putting up with that one time pain, everything is fine)
I'm also working on a project with 2 other guys with database, tomcat, apache, perl tcp server daemons, postfix all on a machine with 384M RAM, all of us in there at once running multiple JVM's & stuff
I'm just saying, under Unix or a Unix-like system, half a gig is a buttload of memory
But does the generic 5.1 kernel boot on your machine? I've found the BSD's are alot trickier with weird dependencies than Linux when trying to make a custom kernel.
yum yum, a lubricant and also used for insulators in some capacitors and transformers. Non-toxic and inert in the body ( we hope) according to MSDS, but I wouldn't really want to be eating that crap.
here in Illinois they all are legal if taxes paid - alchohol being the main mind-altering substance I was thinking of, though tobacco is also one. I think smoking *anything* is stupid, and have never & will never smoke pot or anything else, but just from a logical point of view I don't see why smoking a J is illegal and evil while someone who chugs 6 pints of beer a few nights a week is ok. I can tell you who will suffer more brain damage; won't be the hippie
Bah, the cure was MUCH BETTER than the disease..we don't want to be a victim of your ISP's carelessness and stupidity, filling our inboxes with some spammers offal. Your ISP got a major attitude adjustment, which woke them up & made them toe the line. Of course their customers suffered from their stupidity; you should have punished them too and switched to an ISP with more neurons between their ears
visible light photons in phase, at the nearly same frequency, in the same direction as a result of stimulated emission.....please do tell me what technology before the 1960's produced those.
Of course, I know a couple natural sources of laser radiation, but that's another story.

Some companies do in fact sell their email lists, though they say they won't. Your credit records and rating are searchable by many parties, certainly not just the company from you bought services/goods. Read the fine print on whom a company might share data with, their "partners" and perhaps others. Maybe you're too young to know, but some vietnam protesters were arrested, got the crap beaten out of them by police, were put on FBI watch lists, etc.etc.

One cool thing (for engineers, anyway) a slide rule does that a calculator doesn't is provide along with your answer a RANGE of answers..for example, you can see right away without changing anything what a x% increase or decrease in a factor does to the solution.
why sad? It still works! I think its cool someone actually expects a tool to last more than 5 years! they should throw something useful away because us geeks don't think it's kewl?
AS/400's aren't that old, they were introduced in 1988, and now have RISC processors (that just emulate the older CISC)......maybe they have a 1483, or even a 370 or 360 or 1720 or 1620...now THOSE are old.

See, you just don't understand, it's evil & wicked to gamble & smoke & purchase/use mind altering substances, UNLESS THE GOVERMENT GETS A CUT.
