I ask this in all seriousness...After visiting the main page at bell
labs, and reading from the links there, I'm sorta missing the point of
Plan 9. The interface is nice. But applications are sparce. What is
the draw of thie OS. I tried to install it. But the hardware I have is
not supported. So why go to the trouble. Why does the bunny not die???
 Why do YOU use Plan 9 and not Linux/FreeBSD?
