[OT] un pezzo di storia (Linux)

[gurutech]

Ciao,
ho appena appreso che google ha pubblicato (http://www.google.com/googlegroups/archive_announce_20.html) gli archivi usenet dal 1981 ad oggi.

Finalmente posso leggere l'intera flame (http://groups.google.com/groups?dq=&hl=it&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&threadm=12595%40star.cs.vu.nl&rnum=1&prev=/groups%3Fq%3Dg:thl2305852938d%26dq%3D%26hl%3Dit%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26oe%3DUTF-8%26selm%3D12595%2540star.cs.vu.nl) che ci fu tra Tanenbaum e Torvalds

You use this as an excuse for the limitations of minix? Sorry, but you
loose: I've got more excuses than you have, and linux still beats the
pants of minix in almost all areas. Not to mention the fact that most
of the good code for PC minix seems to have been written by Bruce Evans.
