My question is: will freebsd work with those new things, which one is faster to support new hardware, Linux or FreeBSD and whats the time difference. Will you ever support these hardware. At first sight FreeBSD seems to be beter structured, and I really like some structure. I dont really like the chaos of Linux. Another thing I think is important, is support, and I am testing that right now ;-). You can Buy 4CD-Roms with freeBSD 3.1, but what's on those 4CD-roms ? Is there KDE 1.1 ? Everything ? Thank you very much, Luc Segers P.S.: I really like the Little Red Devil To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
