I think he made such a big stink about it during the infamous flame war that, even if it was somehow proven that a macro-kernel is a better design, Tanenbaum could never back down from his premise without losing face.
When I was working and going to school at Florida State University the CompSci and the Math building networks were connected via a strand of 10Base5 that got struck by lightning about once every 10 months toasting the transceivers on either end. After that happened about 5 times the replaced it with a strand of fiber, which at the time was pretty spendy.

Besides, you can get an Oracle license for $99/yr.

I've been using PHP with Apache2 for months now.

What are all the other New Zealanders doing while he's using the internet connection?
Peach Tree Accounting will not run on a Samba Share. The developers are researching why.

I was just discussing this with a friend. For those of us steeped in the lore of the internet, it's called "Kiboing"

For originality I've always been a big fan of Walter John Williams. Anyone else familiar with his work? Hardwired, Voice of the Whirlwind, Aristoi...

You could always just tell them, "No". I always did.
