&gt; &gt; &gt; Unix and C are the ultimate computer viruses.

&gt; &gt; Interesting way to refer to them.  I guess that makes Windows 95 a
&gt; &gt; new birth defect that we're still trying to find a cure for?  :)
&gt; 
&gt; Well yeah, sort of.   It's a genetic mutation that is a further step 
&gt; on the chain of OS evolution.  Kind of like a transition from homo 
&gt; erectus to homo sapiens neanderthalis.  While erectus used simple and 
&gt; blunt tools, neanderthalis used more complex assemblies of tools. 
&gt; Erectus never did find a cure for these "birth defects".   :P

A mud developer bashing Unix and lauding win95?  Have I missed something?

Btw, religion aside:  How can any one process die and crash a
(multi-tasking) kernel?  Ie, como se dice 'Blue Screen'???  I mean, as
root I can take down my Linux box, but I've never been able to crash the
kernel, or even openwindows.  

OTOH, I hear the new win98 is more crash proof.  Course, that was 
a columnist in the local paper..but hey!
