<p>While finished thin servers should be optimized in both hardware
and software for the task at hand, who says the software and hardware
must come from the same developer? This Perspective examines the
emerging trend in the OEM market of divorcing the software layer from
the hardware layer. Many operating systems are vying to be the OS of
choice for thin servers. This document examines this issue in detail,
particularly the differences between Linux and FreeBSD, the current
de facto leaders in the market. <i>Note</i>: The article is no
