They'll say | Linux was designed for the 386 and the new CPUs are doing the really | interesting things differently. Let's drop this old Linux stuff. This is | essentially what I did when creating Linux. And in the future, they'll be | able to look at our code, and use our interfaces, and provide binary | compatibility, and if all that happens I'll be happy. andrey "just fanning the flames" mirtchovski
