Linux: not just for million dollar data centers any more :)
(sorry, couldn't resist :))
More seriously, SAS will be making an increasing appearance on commodity
hardware, through the new SAS/SATA chips that are just starting to make
their appearance (like the chips I'm working on). And Marvell and
Broadcom are big guys. Just wait until the tiny Taiwanese shops start
cranking out SAS/SATA chips.
With that, you'll get all the joys of low-cost volume production, and
the user field foibles that come with it.
