Pumpernickel is definitely better than pasta.

Oh, I don't know that. A good pasta is a delicacy in its own right. As
much as good food needs a good chef, OSen need people that understand
how to secure them. And to provide those people the tools to do it, of
course. I know FreeBSD does, and I'm told Solaris does, also.


Since we're playing security and stabilty bingo - Hard to beat the
typical uptime of AIX when compared to either that PC stuff or that
Sun stuff.

VMS seems to run decent uptimes too.


Maybe it's because AIX is hard to use, maybe because they
have better stuff.

The hardware is pretty decent, in the ``heavy as rocks, about as solid''
sense. The software is best left untouched, as far as I've seen.
