Hmm..I know I proposed FreeBSD in that list but is it really worth the effort adding those exact terms in our pages? I wouldn't trust someone that classifies operating systems in Beavis & ButtHead terms! OTOH many people in the FreeBSD lists tend to say Linux is great simply because it's free, while we do a better job in most fronts. This attitude of not disserning publically which is the technically superior solution only tends to create more fanatism around Linux and more stupid meters that don't prove anything. All this is, of course, IMHO :-). Pedro. Dag-Erling Coidan Smørgrav wrote: > > > You asked for it, you got it.
