[Boyd] take[s] dennis ritchie's position:

    unix has retarded o/s research by 10 years and linux has
    retarded it by 20.

Where did I say that?  Rob's famous slide show is bolder on
similar points.  I'm more the let-a-hundred-flowers-bloom
kind of guy.  Well, maybe I said the 10 years part in some
form, but it was a while ago.
