On this list, all the college-kid sysadmins tell me how great FreeBSD is, but on the freebsd-performance list, none of the developers refute my findings. If that doesn't tell you something, then you really don't have the capacity to comment on this or any other subject. You can't reason someone out of an idea not reasoned into, Chad. You have no foundation for your beliefs, so even prima facie evidence won't convince you. Its called being a fool. DT __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
