We've been debating the merits of a possible IBM-Sun deal for a while now, and even Sun itself seemed to be in the dark as to if it would be a good idea to be bought by IBM. These debates are now all moot: in a surprise move (at least, I didn't see any speculation about it) Oracle has bought Sun Microsystems, at USD 9.50 a share, which equates to a total of 7.4 billion USD. The news got out through a press release.

You are right that he should provide links to backup his examples.
and that you have provided links to each one of your statements in the past.
the only problem is that i have yet to find one link of those you posted that actually are backing up your statements.
you make the statement Linux is bad for file servers.
And the article that you link to is "linux is bad for file servers if you wish to have a single volume larger than 100tb"
which are to completely different statements.
since you know not that many file servers run single volume file systems of 100tb+.
yes linux is not the best solution for everything, but guess what neither is solaris aix or anything else there is no golden ticket for achieving everything.
please read though the articles that you use to backup your statments since i have yet to find a article that you have linked to that have made the same statment that you have.
