Oh, I also forgot to ask, but why move Linux down because you
think Linus is a prick, but have MacOS X so high (Jobs is an
A-1 PRICK) and OpenBSD (Theo)?

Also, NeXTstep was one of Jobs's children, as was the Mac
from the beginning.

And when you think about the evolution of NetBSD, there were
and are pricks there (going all the way back to UCB), too.

Of course, the best Unix I've seen is Tru64.  Too bad HP is
going to drop it in favor of PHUX.
