Yeah, try that in Solaris and watch all processes die...
killall is used by shutdown(1M) to kill all active processes not directly related to the shutdown procedure.
Use pkill(1).
Seriously - you believe the phrase "it's not you, it's me" ever spared anyone's feelings?
It's not you, it's me. I don't like you!
I find that statement a lot more honest (and funny),
Another good thing - It runs NetBSD!
I'm tracking NetBSD -current. Reboots happen when there is a new feature I want to try out or when there are important security updates.
I would probably say something like once every two weeks to once every three months.
I do have an UPS and power failures long enough for shutdown are very rare.
Here is a short presentation with some purty graphs comparing NetBSD 4.0, NetBSD 5.0, Linux and FreeBSD 7.1.

And there is syntax highlight for ABB Rapid robot programming language. I sometimes need to program these at work so it's the reason I have it. It's not that expensive either.
I have been contemplating writing Rapid syntax highlight for vim but never gotten around to it. So I wouldn't mind if someone else did
Well, the C64 only had C= Basic V2 which would fit in a 8kb ROM. That was one of the reasons they put it in the C64. Other C= machines (even earlier ones) had better basic... but of course it was bigger than 8kb.
The Commodore 128 had V7 (the last released, the prototype C65 aka C64DX had V10).
V7 was actually very nice, albeit a bit slow for i 1MHz machine.
I think the deal with MS was that they could improve the interpreter without paying royalties after V1, which would mean that Commodore is one of the few companies that put one over MS.
Surely you jest!
It actually had two character sets. Upper case and graphic characters. The other was lower case and upper case.
If you think the system is working, ask someone who's waiting for a prompt.
