Looks like apache.com has been paying attention to AAC's posts over the years, though I wonder why they would configure a Conner 1.08 GB drive for FreeBSD. Really neat company manifesto, too, if you're the sort of person that collects non-standard ideologies (which I do :-).

Stay tuned... >>8 MBytes/s between systems, << 0.5 ms TCP latency is here today. Cheers, Russell http://www.geli.com Fast Ethernet on Pentium Workstation Clusters
