not quite .. illumos actually sounds a bit more like the latin masculine
singular accusative case (direct object of a transitive verb) for that or those
.. ie: we developed THAT, or Oracle abandoned THAT
yeah .. not quite as quirky in ubuntu - but the real thing in compiz/emerald
that drives me nuts is the sheer volume of configuration options - i think
apple got it right to simplify the visual effects down to a few key ones and
make them really simple for people to configure/use

hear hear! thanks for your candid insight Ian! .. i've only been at
sun for about 10 years now, but from what i've seen it's always been

you don't really need to do the prtvtoc and fmthard with the old Sun
labels if you start at cylinder 0 since you're doing a bit -> bit
