speaking of linux flavours... How about the new solaris for x86? It
has some really cool features such as zones/containers (forget about
chroot jails forever or applications that you do not trust), dtrace,
fast tcp/ip stack, and altogether I think solaris is a fantastic OS.
And free :-)

I sure hope it gets the attention it deserves, though the linux fanboy
community has been working hard to spread all sort of shenanigans
about licenses and how evil Sun is.

I have nothing against linux, but sometimes the community really puts
(and has put) me off...
