a moment of pride
Tuesday, Nov 16. 2004 – Category: Sun
read Ashlee Vance’s article at The Register.
I have to admit, I felt a sense of pride when reading this paragraph: Its Solaris engineering team is arguably the best operating system design group on the planet. Sun pours billions into the operating system and has countless features that neither Windows or Linux can match. It’s secure, scales incredibly well and now, Sun claims, fast. Beyond all of this, Sun faces no real Unix competition from a big player in the x86 market. It’s Sun’s segment to win.

from a fellow geek…cool!
good work Steve and the rest of the design team.
back to some old UCSD humor: so I take it you didn’t use any of our wonderfully designed temp-struct’s in your work? =)
