Ian Murdock, founder of Debian, the extremely successful and arguably "free-est" and most democrat OS distribution, just announced that he has just been made the head of OS Strategy at Sun Microsystems, multiplatform hardware vendor and maintainers of the free OS Solaris, which is the fastest UNIX system and arguably most advanced OS around.
I care because Sun makes really, really solid hardware (check out this upcoming processor, holy crap), and also because Solaris and Debian are two of my favorite OSes, although Debian-based Ubuntu is my first choice for most desktop and laptop environments. Why should you care? You probably shouldn't, this post was basically just an excuse to mention my dear, rock-solid Debian outside of the context of Ubuntu, a chance that is less and less common.
