I think the idea of creating a blog for system admin is a good idea and I don't mind having it names opensource or anything for that matter.

However, san4u saying that s/he does not believe that OpenSource and Sysadmins don't tally together is a negative statement, in my honest opinion.

I definitely understand that Apache is one of the most popular (may be best) web servers in use (ditto for many other open source projects). However, I have seen many commercial application that are very useful and efficient with excellent support.

Saying OpenSource tally with Sysadmin because the market of SysAdmin is dominated by opensource is similar to saying Computer Users tally with Windows Users ( more than 90% of computers in the world have windows operating system)

san4u, I appreciate you appreciating open source projects ( so do I), but trying to advocate a misleading statement is not the right thing to do.
