Sun, huh?

At least this group uses a BSD variant, not that horrible SYSV mess
you guys try to sell.

Solaris sucks hard. At least there's a battle between BSD and NT.
Solaris tries to be NT with lots of awful GUI-based administration,
and fails miserably. It tries to network like BSDI, and again, like
admintool, it looks like a fish out of water.

Solaris and SYSV on the whole is pretty much a non-factor anymore. No
matter who finally ends up with the license. Yet the geniuses at Sun
decided that Solaris (SYSV) was the 'upgrade' to the venerable SunOS
(BSD).

And we should trust YOU? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
