i can't really agree with this. a plan 9 development environment is great stuff,
even when developing for other embedded systems. you're better off without
the vendor junk anyway. now linux and windows are pretty insular enviroments,
and this makes life quite a bit harder, but my point is that i think there's a broader
perspective.
