I disagree for semantic reasons, but rather than drag through all that, I
wanted to grab this quote as just one of the many fine points you made
throughout your post.  This, and the fact that a large part of the server
side of the web is *nix, is truly cause for thought.  Anyway, innovation
abounds in our industry, if you're willing to see it for what it is.  That's
why I continue in this field.
