    Definitely a valid concern. I believe the environments for HP and
    Solaris have both shown promise. I haven't heard about any actual
    running drivers yet, but I believe the proof of concept is there.

    Linus mentioned committees (sp?). I think that's what is slowing it
    down more than anything. It's tough to get HP/Sun/etc./etc. to agree on
    much of anything as far as implementation.

    So, I think it'll work, it'll be a while though.
