	To anonymous FreeBSD user. 

	Due to its licence, FreeBSD cannot become an enterprise platform
	from the vendor's perspective. They all fear heavy proprietisation
	and forking of any non-GPL codebase. 


	The only OS that can fly to where the Open Source world wants it to
	fly is Linux, FreeBSD is now 5+ years behind in terms of enterprise
	readiness. Please keep up with the times and avoid this whole OS
	pissing contest thing. 

	Remember, we're not talking single-CPU internet servers anymore.
	FreeBSD cannot scale to 64 CPUs nor does it have the hardware support
	necessary to breach the enterprise space.
