Since you're asking... Babble. Just what I would expect to read in an American computer magazine and exactly the reason why I gave up on BYTE and similar publications a decade ago. (A recent look into a copy of Linux Journal quickly showed that there has been no improvement since.) A long series of assertiations backed by... nothing. Superficial to the point of having no content at all. I don't know who the intended audience for this drivel is, but I guess it's not me. People seem to be all happy if such an article accidentally proposes some points they agree with, but that doesn't make the journalism any better. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
