I propose that people who subscribe to the idea that a devil on the box means a devil inside, constitute a very minor percentage of the population. I also propose that more potential FreeBSD users are lost due to the lack of native RPM support and GUI installation tools. I would not change the installation, ports system, or logo to suit those people. None of those three groups are worth the calories being expended in this conversation. This entire thread is funny, and sad. DAve
