I look at FreeBSD, and I see something that could EASILY contend with Monet, and hold it's own. FreeBSD is a Masterpiece and a technical wonder all rolled into one, and if someone doesn't agree with that about BSD in general being a Master Work of Art, that's OK, you can disagree, but I think it's wonderful, and beautiful. I actually remember one day talking on a Computer Security Forum, and I had mentioned on there that I was watching the DVD "20 Years of Berkeley Unix" which I had ordered from the FreeBSD Mall, and watching one of my Heros, Marshal Kirk McKusick, speak at a huge BSD Conference or something along those lines (If you don't have this DVD, you can of course order it directly from his Web Site, and I FULLY Recommend that if you can afford to do so, buy it!! It's GREAT, and it's VERY interesting, and he's Hilarious!) . I had the pleasure of getting to speak to him over Email a few times, and it's nice when you not only get to meet one of your Heros, but then seeing that he's such a good guy, and was super nice to me, as I came off as a Fan Boy or something lol. Seriously, he was super nice, thanked me for my Email, and answered all my questions, and was in general just great. I've met Krztoff from the Band Bile, which is a good Industrial Band, and he's cool, and a huge Misfits Fan, as am I, and I met Jerry Only, the Bass Player for The Misfits, and I've also gotten to meet, talk to, and even exchange Emails with both the guys from the Band Mortician, which is a Horror Based Death Metal Band, and I LOVE that band, as I'm a huge Horror Movie Fan, and so are they, and I like Music that's based on Horror Movies, like The Misfits, White Zombie / Rob Zombie, Mortician, every Horror Punk Band, every Psychobilly Band, and others of course, and I was really surprised to see that Roger from Mortician was a total Computer Geek like me, and he showed me his Work Desk, where he took pictures for me of his set up, and even some of his oldschool Computers (I think he had a PET set up on there as well, and he also showed me some of his other boxes he used for making Music) so I've had the pleasure of meeting some of my Musical Heros as well, and it was awesome getting to talk to these people. Anyway, so, at one point on the DVD, MKM was talking about how in Germany they were using Unix for Dialysis or something along those lines, and the Forum I was posting on, had a member who was totally into Windows and Microsoft, and in general confused me with how he actually LIKED running this stuff lol. Well, he would always go on and on that there was nothing he couldn't do on Windows that I could do on Unix, and so I said to put his money where his mouth is, and asked him if HE was having Dialysis, would he REALLY allow Windows NT, or 2000, or 2003 Server, to run HIS Machine, if his life truly DID depend on that machine staying up and stable, and I said that if I had to pick an OS that was going to run some vital life function where a Crash could mean Death, my ONLY pick would be BSD. The guy danced around the direct question I asked, and basically didn't want to answer. But I think it proved my point; That when Stability means life and death, it would take major brain damage to think Windows NT was the answer lol. Sorry about the huge reply to this, but I've been awake for like 2 days now, and I'm exhausted, and I've been up longer than most Windows Servers. ;) -Allen
