Ad hominem and strawman arguments won't get you far. JMHO.

<<Are you brain dead>> Where does that place your brain, James? In formaldehyde? You don't seem to comprehend 1/10th of what is being said. Byron Xiao is a brilliant man IMO. Your combative spirit is interesting, but your arguments are stale and flawed. Stick with NT and its 40 million+ lines of code, Michael

James wrote: Are you brain dead. Solaris boots up with UFS (Unreliable File System) by default. Probably it doesn't use it's JFS because it's unreliable and probably too slow as well. Wow, James what did I do to deserve you say that to me? I might have problems with women (not because I don't respect them like how you respect housewifes in our society), but I've never been called brain dead in my life. When a system never crashes, why should I worry about how long does a crash recovery fsck runs? My Solaris box has been up for more than 6 months now, and the last time I took it down was because of a hard drive upgrade. My window 98 machine probably crashed once a week. I guess because of the frequency of the crash, MSFT had to design a robust NTFS to do file crash recovery.
