I just thought I would throw my two bits in to this Hurd Discussion.  

I am inclined to agree with the above notion.  Particularly in the case
of Linux.  Linux isa stable and wonderfully rich operating system that
operates on current cheap hardware.  There are MIPS/Alpha and PowerPC
ports underway as we speak.  

I am running Linux on a lowly 386dx-40 and it sings...  When the alpha port
is completed...  There won't even be other operating systems (as far
as I am concerned)

Hurd may have been a good idea a while ago, but it's niche has been filled
by Linux.  Hurd seems to have a lot more development required, yet I have had
a stable and productive Linux system for over a year now!
