I just got to read these in Spiegel Online. It makes one wonder...
I sure found a lot of factual errors in there.
...Linux is based on Unix's code...
SCO will be happy to hear this!
The article also tries to make the reader believe (although it does not
write it) that Windows is a fault tolerant system. It describes Linux as
an old software that (unsuccessfully) tries to prevent system crashes.
According the article experts agree that crashes are unavoidable in
complex systems. Modern OS'es (Windows isn't explicitly named) should
try to crash intelligently to limit damage.
