law enforcement agencies should fight crack??
This is actually not a bad idea. Take the profit out of the drug trade and we will be closer to solving the drug problem than what 40 years of "War on drugs" has acomplished

True. Of course you could accomplish the same thing by legalizing the drugs.:)

Quoting:Of course you could accomplish the same thing by legalizing the drugsIsn't that the same thing? At least that was what I meant when I made the comment. US drug policies as so many other policies are a mystery to me. The war on drugs must be about something else.
Don't know if any of that would work, but, it couldn't be any worse.

Not really, no. You're assuming that law enforcement wouldn't do anything illegal. History shows that this is not a wise assumption. :)
> US drug policies as so many other policies are a mystery to me.
They defy analysis if you assume that the purpose is to control the use of drugs, yes.
> The war on drugs must be about something else.
It is. Probably about several other things actually. As with anything of this scope, a number of agendas are advanced for a number of people.

Agreed. The war on drugs is very similar to prohibition, with the same effects, and the same ultimate solution, assuming those in power want the problems fixed. However, this is turning into another political discussion, and I don't want to cause Tom to delete another thread.

Anyway jdixon, none of the afore mentioned solutions will ever happen in this reality anyway.
Excellent strategy
This is a very smart move on HPs part.
What you might not be aware of is that Sun has completely missed the Blade Server transition and currently has no response.
What better way for HP to break into legacy Solaris installation than to offer Solaris on Blade servers.
