This is a ridiculous argument to make. I've taken Sparc 2s literally
from a scrap metal yard and made them into perfectly good servers that
take very little rack space, by putting Linux on them. I'm glad that
Linux runs on these machines, because I can administer a Debian box
more effectively than a NetBSD box. Let's all be happy that there is
a choice of operating systems for every platform, instead of deriding
perfectly solid but non-fast hardware, and slandering the BSD heritage
by saying it is most suitable for running on "junk".
