Isn't this sort of on subject - a Linux list with a Linux vs. a new interesting competitor? A list only stays interesting so long as it isn't absolutley absolute on the subject matter (and certainly we are talking about Linux technologies here).
Just my two cents...

Dunno if you'd been following the thread, but it was degenerating (I learnt that word from my ex-mother-in-law!) into a typical OS flame war. Personally, I applaud Mac for going the *nix way, and for the efforts they are now putting towards the OpenSource model. More market-share to 'em! When you start looking around, there ain't a lot of OS's still going that aren't based, somehow, on the *nix architecture, and those that aren't, are going to find themselves on the outer when it comes to major application development in the next few years. Your 2 cents Plus my two cents Equals four cents.... We could start a pyramid scheme on this :-) -- This Email is 100% Virus Free! How do I know?
