The second one, by an IBM employee, is actually pretty funny. Both worth
reading, in any case.
An Open Letter to Sun from the Linux Establishment

Hey, Sun, Bugger Off: IBM
http://www.linuxgram.com/article.pl?sid=02/03/06/042
Well, here's another one.

The 'IBM unearths Raptor' story is either deliberately intended to mislead, or the
author has
such a poor appreciation of what IBM did that he/she should be disciplined and not be
published again without a stringent review.

A definition I recently retired
is because of their extremely
young age
and lack of experience. After all, if it passes the spell checker, it must
be right.

How many years ago was it that SUN first compared mainframes to dinosaurs?
The z800 hase a lot of memory so it is appropriate that they chose the name raptor,
since it was a small, smart dinosaur. Only 3 feet tall? But I thought it was really
'velociraptor'
but I guess you need Velocity Software'
I've turned my remarks into a web page at http://www.isham-research.com/kneejerk.html

'Raptor' was originally called something else. Lots of code names have been used - the
original system in that space was 'Flagstaff'
