5/4     I would appreciate a reliability ranking between:
        1) OpenBSD
        2) OpenSolaris
        3) FreeBSD
        4) Debian-Stable
        5) Suse Linux Enterprise Server

12/9    Another idea for the CSUA that lets you spend money and maybe get some
    cool toys. Instead of buying a beefy server (like say, a massive server
    with 20 386DX processors), buy a few cheap machines (like the ones
    mentioned below) that have good disks and work on failover / load
    balancing. A netscaler or other piece of hardware is complete overkill,
    but maybe hacking an OpenBSD box could do the trick. The idea is that

7/13    I'm thinking about getting a Soekris 4501 to replace my the P2-400
        that is currently acting as my home firewall. Has anyone used a
        Soekris system for this purpose? If so, how well does it work? Also,
        if there are any alternatives (similar power/form factor), I would
        appreciate links to those as well. tia.

        Remote exploit in OpenBSD kernel.  Security is hard.  And yes, it
        would be really difficult to exploit this in practice. -dans

8/16    Greatest piece of software ever written is 4.3 BSD:
        http://tinyurl.com/go7lv (informationweek.com)
        \_ Windows is run by more computers than all other OS combined.
           \_ that only makes it common, not great.
              \_ If it wasn't great people wouldn't use it.  They'd use 4.3
                 BSD.

3/24    Wow!  FreeBSD sure is stable!  After seeing soda's amazing uptime
        record, I sure want to go replace my Linux boxes with FreeBSD!
        Please do not delete this, or burn down Linus' house because I have
        blasphemed the holy FreeBSD.  I'd love to see a genuine discussion with
        examples from both sides comparing the stability of *modern* FreeBSD
        and Linux machines running on x86 hardware. -dans
