Because I didn't realize that anytime we post a reply it MUST be to help
the original poster? This is a questions mailing list. I did not intend my
"comment" to be trolling, it was a perfectly valid question. I really did
ask it because I was curious, and because I believed FreeBSD to be server
oriented (am I wrong?), and didn't bother to keep up with how well or how
poorly the audio portion of it has been developing. Just because I don't
follow EVERY SINGLE line of code in FreeBSD doesn't mean I am not
interested in its other available uses besides my original idea of it as a
server OS. If it really has progressed to the point of being an excellent
multimedia OS, then I am more than happy because I have a dual SMP machine
that I use as a workstation with an SB Live in it, and I didn't install
FreeBSD on it especially because I believed that I wouldn't get digital
out of it.

So then this poses the question. Are you the troll for assuming I am
trolling because I asked a simple curiosity based question for which I
didn't know the answer to, or are you just that presumptious to believe
that all replies that does not immmediately solves the original posters
question to be nothing but troll/flame bait?
