    I use FreeBSD 4.x on my desktop machines, also with excellent
    results. I'm glad FreeBSD is different, that's why I use this
    OS and not Windows or another OS that runs breakneck to achieve
    its levels of idiot-friendliness.

    I see two fallacies in your post:

    * being further in the race to copycat Windows is an
      achievement. Gee, why aren't all these people using Linux then?
    * FreeBSD is a worse desktop operating system than Linux. How come
      I haven't noticed during the last few years?
