Wow!

Sun seems to do a good job with Solaris .. I just read about the new Service Management Facility

Sysadmin vs AdminDrone --- Computing vs Data Processing?

Cool:
» The IT Commandments: #2 Thou Shalt Honor and Empower thy (Unix) Sysadmins | Paul Murphy | ZDNet.com

I'm sooo happy whenever someone understands the difference between a proper sysadmin and a admin drone.

Cool.

An insightful article on QoS!
