No one, I mean NO one, on the net has got the inspiration or the determination like FreeBSD Guys. 2. FreeBSD can run the Binaries of following OSs; Linux (user & devel. level) DOS (in 8088 emulation,slow motion mode) Windows 3.1, Window 95 (via wine, STILL ALPHA) SCO (Haven't tried this though) FreeBSD :-) (naturally) 3. Linux is NO-WHERE near FreeBSD. All Linux people, Flame me, but this Will NOT change the TRUTH. (if interested in comparisons, there are some URLs). ALL hats off for the FreeBSD TEAM.
