was checking out this webpage for an interesting story on more lethal blaster variants expected, when i noticed a strange ad on the right panel. it says: "unix like reliability. without unix-level budget. do more. with less. windows server 2003.' er . . . unix-like is a qualifying statement, does it mean nearly there but not quite there? unix-level budget? i suppose its not free-of-cost as in gnuLinux? har har! the do more with less is a very close take on an apple slogan of the mid-nineties when they strongly pitched mac os 7 or something against win95 and mac against 486 generally. interesting ad. oh! and it promises you can 'Try It Free' as well. this is where RMS usually steps in and says free as in free cigarettes to children in schools, or something to that effect. but seriously, i wonder how many of you have noted that all the disparate operating systems born in the early eighties, are actually de-forking and merging back into *nix its as if *nix was, *nix is, and *nix will be. eternal like the sanskrit of operating sytems.
