at usenix last week the question of I2O came up. Don't worry about I2O. Look around: how many I2O motherboards do you see, as compared to non-I2O motherboards? Look at it this way: you think microsoft is that interested in requiring a second operating system (vxworks) to make NT go? I2O will be a footnote in a year or so. After that, it will be forgotten and in 10 years someone else will reinvent the idea and learn the hard way why it is a bad one (as I2O is itself a reinvention of old, bad ideas). ron Ron Minnich |Java: an operating-system-independent, rminnich@sarnoff.com |architecture-independent programming language (609)-734-3120 |for Windows/95 and Windows/NT on the Pentium ftp://ftp.sarnoff.com/pub/mnfs/www/docs/cluster.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
