I'm just trying out Ubuntu Linux and I think that having the user/groups permission system in the lowest layer possible -the file system- is just genius. If Microsoft started using file systems like ext3 surely they would have a really strong SO without having to add tones of security software. BTW: there's three mail verification fields and when I submit the comment it just says "Thanks but dont fill out that field. :)". Which field?
