Uh, let's see. Windows 2003 Server, Solaris 8 (CDE) and 9 (CDE or
Gnome), RHEL (Gnome)--clearly GUIs for servers are the way of the
future. (Seriously though, I think MS maybe doing more innovation in
the server market than anyone else. Sure they have further to catch up,
but Server 2003 was a huge step up from Server 2000. They're still
crippled for what a real admin would want to do, but companies don't
want to pay real admins. So look out.)
But I'm with Greg. Uh, Collins. No, William. Well, whoever--I don't
run a GUI on my servers and I only admin my desktop from the command line.
