J.: For the admin machines, Linux is the system of choice as we need something very reliable for running the critical software like DNS, postgres SQL [sic.], mail, and so on. We use Apache for our intraweb server, ^^^^^^^^^^^^ although we run it on Jesus, our O2000 file server. ... ... For the whole interview see http://www.ars-technica.com/etc/3q99/southpark/ Bernie
