I don't know if this discussion should be started again, but I can't stop myself from saing that having Linux supporting SGI MIPS machines as well as it does SPARC64 machines would be very pleasant thing to have. Everyone knows that Slowlaris is rock-solid OS, but I am yet to see a person that doesn't like Linux on SUN machines. I want to be able to say same thing about O2, Octane, and Onyx[2] systems some time soon (wish wish wish....). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAjt3YhQACgkQtKh84cA8u2kbjACaA2O/hf9+FhPOIe/yQU+IlMxU 6EsAn0cdQihzuUIws9AH7394ITRPa2Mx =hJez -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
