Bad example. You see less crime in New York City, post-1990 anyway, than in many smaller cities like Baltimore and Chicago. And even in NYC you see more crime in the low-density suburbs and less in high-density Manhattan. Kris and others: let's leave Dragonfly out of it. Nobody mentioned Dragonfly, except me in my first posting, and that was only to say that the boot menu lives on. Nobody's advocating Dragonfly to end-users and certainly not to production environments yet. The concerns about FreeBSD started to grow well before Dragonfly. The specific concern I raised was that nobody who matters cares about user-friendliness. This thread seems to confirm that. I suspect that all those who used to care about it now work for Apple...
