    Converted a large data center running 11/780s and 2BSD/3BSD to SunOS once SunOS4 came out. Earlier Suns crashed every twenty minutes and you couldn't use NFS with email because of the f*cked kernel locking code that took Sun over a decade to fix. I fixed it for our systems but Sun wasn't interested in the patches. We had some old multibus Sun1's that we turned into hardware routers. I didn't really care for SunOS and put a hacked BSD4.3 and later 4.4 on my sun2/sun3/sun4 desktops instead and spat the dummy when Sun officially dumped BSD and went with the SYSV nightmare "Solaris". Did some professional work on Solaris at Netscape but Sun was dead to me by then. The things I could tell you, but don't even get me started. #bsdstart
