   Yeah, now if only 4BSD would catch up to System V...

Religious war alert.  Crusades imminent.

I think we can all make a mutual agreement NOT to start up with this
(despite the grand old Usenet tradition).

Anyway, I don't care.  The GNU kernel will be orders of magnitude better
than either, and even now has none of the nitty-gritty kernel details that
plague other systems, through the simple and elegant solution of nonexistence.
