4 Introduction Observations Users won t really notice different kernel underneath their systems (spark plugs!) Developers will mostly neither. Questions Why so many different kernels? How do they differ? Quantitative assessment possible? Which one s the best kernel? Page 4 October 29, 2009 W. Mauerer Corporate Technology SE 2
