Again, what does this mean? Linux is still changing much faster than FreeBSD, but that's because it is still maturing.

Well, I'd suggest you look for an operating system which fits your needs. The criteria you've stated above don't seem to have much to do with the purposes for which you plan to use the system. How about looking for a system which is reliable and fast? Then FreeBSD would be your choice. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.
