I have been messing with UNIX from my days at Interdata (76-78) I helped deliver 8/32#1 to Murry Hill (Bell Labs) First Non-DEC port.
I messed about with Zenix (a complete mess but a start, what network), Then got a hold of Interactive (later picked up by Sun). in the 90's - 2k I owned an ISP here in Dallas, Tx.
We used lots of Sun2s and later UltraSparc 2s, with Big Cisco Router, As 6 ISDN ATA's. Today My Ultra2s are on the shelf, and I still use a UltraSparc Creator 3D for my aircraft model simulation. I think the dam box has 64Gb of memory, and 2 CPUs (slow by others today, but for a load, there is none better) I have replaced my 5 Windows desktops to Linux Mint. Currently, this desktop is my NFS host, and I can mount my exported drives anywhere. The reason for me going to Freenas (new box) is that I just lost 2Gb on my media drive.
I also do quite a bit of embedded design as well mostly using Ardunios and Ti LunchPads. And lets not forget about supporting VME legacy stuff as well.
Thanks for letting me ramble ;)
