Don't get me started. That there is no common file system for all of Unix is unfortunate. That Linux and *BSD have no common file system is tragic. That the Intel-based 4.4BSD variants have no common filesystem is inexcusable. Actually, there is a common filesystem for all of these. They can all use the DOS FAT file system. Great.
