"Spirit," said Scrooge, with an interest he had never felt before, "tell me if *BSD will live."
"I see a vacant seat," replied the Ghost, "in the poor chimney-corner, and a crutch without an owner, carefully preserved. If these shadows remain unaltered by the Future, *BSD will die."
"No, no," said Scrooge. "Oh, no, kind Spirit! say it will be spared."
"If these shadows remain unaltered by the Future, none other of my race," returned the Ghost, "will find him here. What then? If it be like to die, it had better do it, and decrease the surplus operating system population."
Scrooge hung his head to hear his own words quoted by the Spirit, and was overcome with penitence and grief. It was sad to see any operating system die, even one so obviously flawed and useless as *BSD.
Wing Commander Galactica? Surely you're not dissing SciFi's Battlestar Galactica, which is actually pretty good. Sure, it's an anomaly at SciFi, but it's a well-done show, and far and away better than the campy original.
OTOH, I stopped watching EarthSea after about 15 mins.

Alpha? Beta? Just call it a failure. You will never stop the trolls until Slashdot stops carrying stories about a non-existent operating system.
