Oct. 23 -- BSD resumed receiving life-sustaining care yesterday in a Florida hospital room, but many experts said there is virtually no hope that it will ever recover, despite it fan boy's desperate hopes.
"IF IT'S over a year, BSD's not ever going to get up," said Fred Plum, a professor emeritus at Weill Cornell College in New York. "You'd just don't see it. It just doesn't happen."
BSD, 39, has been in a persistent vegetative state since its heart stopped for unknown reasons in 1990. A feedi
Cool. I hope you already know, that at least 94.2% of lifecare medical equpment is running on embedded versions NetBSD and FreeBSD. Why? Because they are far more stable, than any other Linux distro ever invented.
medical equipment usually runs some kind of small embedded OS on simple hardware because its plain stupid to run something like Linux or BSD on that type of hardware.
ROTFL. Go and read www.wasabi.com for NetBSD in embedded devices.
Of course, with such lame virtual memory system, as found in Linux, you might find it impossible to run whole OS in an embedded device - but NetBSD is very memory-conservative and way much stablier (not to mention it don't destroy LG CD-ROMs while installation).
On an 32 MB system running NetBSD, XFree86 and MySQL I still have 4 MB free RAM - which is, of course, used as a buffer cache for I/O operations (NetBSD is stunning fast, not as slow
Maybe she thought about your erection, not NetBSD:)
NetBSD is strong.
It's the incompatible myriad of lame kernels, called Linux, which is really dying. The latest version of it is also known to destroy SATA drives (not to mention IDE CD-ROMS).
*BSD: Feeding tube re-inserted (Score:-1, Troll)

Fact: NetBSD is better, faster, and much more stable than Linux.
