LKateley's semi technical rambling's

it's alive..and i'm taking an act of faith ...

Monday Jun 26, 2006

I am giddy as a school girl. After several years of talking to people about zfs, it's now available. I can't even put into words how exciting it is...

As a celebration for this event.. and the 45 lbs i've lost on weight watchers, i am going to buy a new car, not just any car but the car of my dreams. My husbands car died on friday and in an act of faith that we as a company are back on track, this afternoon, i will get a fully loaded nissan murano. I should probably dream greater dreams, but i really love this car. I sat in one on saturday and my heart skipped a beat. I hadn't felt that way since my husband proposed to me(i'd like to say when my children were born, but i was so hopped up on some drug called perky something that i don't remember much) Now the only question is color. I can get the dark cranberry with tan leather, or gold with black. There is also a black with black, but i have spent the 6 years with a black minivan..

back to zfs .. i had a customer say to me, well your guys couldn't have thought up something like this on their own, they must have gotten it from somewhere, ahh but they did. Real innovation, real engineering comes from looking at the problems today and thinking up all on our own ways to get around those problems, and boy did they.

if you would like to take a look at my zfs deep dive feel free.

Congrats on all fronts, Linda! I would go for cranberry w/ tan, personally. And a custom Solaris / ZFS license plate (a la Jim Fiori).
