And an out and out lie. When Windows 95 was released, I watched their web site(s) very carefully. They were running BSDI on a number of machines because it was obvious that NT was falling over too often. Over time, and once NT4.0 was released this all changed. I really wished I had taken the time to document it, and take them to task. :-( The statements they make now may be true, but were not in the past. -Ken To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
