Amen to this and the rest of your posting! I agree totally with you.

I'm a system administrator for about 10 years now: Started with SunOS,
picked up IRIX, Ultrix, HP/UX, Linux and OSF/1 on the way and finally
got to Solaris (I cried for many days when I realized that SUN _really_
converted to SysV). While HP/UX and especially OSF/1 (YUCK!) are truly
bad systems from a sw-development point of view I learned to live with
Solaris and Linux (btw: anyone here got gdb to work on a Ultra2 ??).

Then some years ago I discovered FreeBSD and installed it immediately on
a spare PC (superseeding a Linux 0.95 installation). And I loved it!
The finest system since the demise of SunOS. And that was only 1.1.*
... Now it's even better!

Here at my workplace I'd _really_ like to switch the Ultra1 on my desk
(Solaris 2.5) with the Pentium-Pro (FreeBSD 2.2.1) in the laboatory but
my boss won't let me ...

> Thank you for a great product and a great community.

Seconded!

 The best observation I can make is that the BSD Daemon logo is _much_
 cooler than that Penguin :-)                       (Donald Whiteside)
