  1. This really isn't the next 'browser' on Apple Safari On Windows Broken On First Day · · Score: 1

    Hey; I don't personally care if somebody claims to have found security bugs they won't share in a browser I won't personally be using. FF 3 alpha is more stable than the Safari I tried installing yesterday. I really don't think Safari is a 'browser' for all of us to adopt; When his 'Steveness' intro'd the iPhone and had no way for developers to introduce 3rd party apps, he had to figure out something. What I think we have here is a 'rush job' from Apple to drop us a browser (read Visual Studio for iPhone) so we can all develop pretty little apps for the thing. Personally, I don't care how many Windows bugs there are as it's kind of more interesting to wonder how many of these bugs are in iPhone... Drew.

  2. Relabel this: Sun to make Solaris less Linux like on Sun to Make Solaris More Linux Like · · Score: 1

    This headline has been floating around Sun for over five years now. Ditto with AIX -- remember IBM's tag line of AIX-5L for 'Linux'. Solaris's core and kernel are far stronger and more extensible than Linux. Sure, with Linux every wannabe can have an x86 box - and every Solaris wannabe buys a ten year old box that no longer sells for ridiculous $$ Linux has never won an "O/S" war over Solaris or AIX. Linux can say it's beaten IRIX or HP/UX since both are pretty well dead. Solaris continues to innovate in areas such as zfs (etc); further no one can say that all the tools Solaris provides are better in BSD (because the license is better) simply because BSD is using this software based on the Solaris (Sun) CDDL, not the GNU license !
