LVM is functional for enterprise environments but awful for the common 
home or office cases. If btrfs lives up to its promises it'll give us 
something that provides pretty much all the functional beneft of LVM 
without the additional abstraction that makes seemingly straightforward 
tasks sufficiently awkward that even I find it abstruse (and I hack on 
ACPI). I think that's entirely in keeping with Linux heritage.

(AIX, on the other hand, delights in partying like it's 1979. Are you 
confusing the two?)
