Guys, I'm a Linux advocate and a Caldera VAR, but even *I* can see that
this whole thread is just plain wrong. It doesn't belong on NANOG. Evenso,
Torvalds would NEVER condone the pro-Linux advocacy statements made in this
thread. I'm not sure that the BSD developers would condone the pro-BSD
statements either.

BTW, except for one lone WinNT server, we are a pure Linux server shop.
