No. They make their money *with* FreeBSD. Very few people make their money *from* FreeBSD.

He doesn't need an excuse, because he was not rude. Oleg, who called Keith "buddy", is not in any way related to the FreeBSD Project (neither is Steve, to the best of my knowledge) > to draw a bow from my own experiece .. i've been in computer related tech > support fro as long as some of teh responder (in thes parts) have been alive. > i know how easy it is to have a bad day and to take it out on teh client. one > momentry slip will destroy years of goodwill. Keith may very well be a client, but he's not Oleg's or Steve's client. This is a public forum. Got that? A *public forum*. Oleg and Steve are members of the public, and do not speak for the FreeBSD Project. Hell, I'm a committer, and *I* don't speak for the Project. Nobody but Jordan Hubbard does. If you ever see Jordan being rude to anybody on this list, *then* you can start complaining. > > Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes. > neithier is their a place for this kind of childish, rude and boorish > behaviour. Looks like you hit the top of the grumpy tree and every branch on the way down, huh?
