This guy needs to learn some pet control, what a waste.

Awesome, should share it.

Sure, why would they have two operating systems for essentially the same market. Its not the difference between a server / desktop-book os.

Seems like just a jaded former employee or a poorly presented article / post.

They should provide a fast one stop cgi that their users can do go that will perform these steps, not 'visit our sites and figure shit out'.

Annoying.

Agreed, if this is after market issues (like cisco had with ios and did the same thing) they could have addressed it in a different issue.

This coupled with the Solaris support changes, not sure what there is in their product line thats worth it.

Cannot wait for a real zfs/dtrace/crossbow/zome alternative elsewhere.

Can you post the ibm study source please.

The rules issues pretty much surrounds the idea that they didn't use a source inside the company, information from a NDA, or similar. A straight hack of the system is perfectly fine. Potentially exploiting a subsystem (a flaw in a database system for example or in SSL itself or what not) might also void the rules.

Comparing ESX and Zones? Seems like a horridly thought out comparison

"from a certain point of view"

They have who knows what degrees?
