Maybe. The web-browser really is a deal-breaker, though. I really enjoyed reading about Plan 9, first at plan9.bell-labs.com/sys/doc/, and later at cat-v.org. As much as I like the design of Plan 9, I also like surfing the web. It would be nice to boot Plan 9 natively on AMD-64, type startx, and open a browser. Unfortunately, I'm not at a level where I can really contribute to getting Plan 9 to that point. I think the focus of the Plan 9 community should be just that. The goal should be a Plan 9 "distro" that runs natively on AMD-64, and can open a web-browser. With the announcement of NIX, maybe we are already at that point? http://doc.cat-v.org/bell_labs/good_bad_ugly/slides/28 - Leonard
