yeah, i had just looked it up, part of the berkley software distribution...hence bsd, i read that before and ive always rolled unix and linux into one general category despite knowing they are different. i also happen to pretty much roll os x into that same category since its unix based.
yup mac os is based off Darwin which is based off BSD lol.

Looks like I missed all the fun.

I am running windows xp pro QND edition. I optimized everything I can so it is secure, runs fast and great. I haven't touched linux for the last 2 years. I used to have a desktop with Slackware installed. Very secure and fast.

OK, here is my question...

bill gates is retired. Some say Steve Balmer doesn't have what it takes. And then Steve Jobs is 53 and has health issues. He probably will retire soon. Does anyone has any prediction on the future of this market? What will happen next and why do you think that way?

Thanx in advance.

Both are great men, but both stop being the lone idea creators years ago tho. Both companies have plenty of smart creative ppl working in their ranks.
