Wow. I just finished reading this article. It's definately one of the most positive pieces I've seen. This really belongs in -advocacy. It surprised me though that the author wrote this: "As inspiring as such stories may be, they're not always enough to persuade risk-averse CIO's to take a gamble on FreeBSD. IT Managers who are comfortable with mainstream technical support shy away from FreeBSD, which does not offer traditional technical support" Then, at the very bottom of the page, is a link to the FreeBSD Mall, which does in fact offer what I would consider to be "traditional technical support". Either way, I thought it was a pretty decent article. On Tue, 4 May 1999, Viren R.
