Seeing as it's Friday, how about a FreeBSD promo video? 1. A picture of a user happily using a computer labelled FreeBSD, with Chuck smiling benevolently in the background. Voice over: "FreeBSD is a highly stable OS, resulting from many man-years of development work. A wide range of applications are provided and many more can be installed using a few simple commands" etc 2. Chuck waves his trident and the computer is suddenly connected to the Internet. User beams with delight as the FreeBSD home page comes up. V/o "FreeBSD comes with highly advanced, tried and tested, networking software, the same software used by the majority of the world's Internet servers. FreeBSD is an ideal platform for Web servers on internal and external corporate networks" blah blah 3. Chuck waves his trident again and our user is connected to lots of other friendly faces all networking away on FreeBSD boxes. V/o "FreeBSD allows you to add users to your network without having to worry about licensing complications" 4. Chuck challenges the user to a game of deathmatch Doom (sorry, this corporate bullsh*t's getting on my nerves). -- James Raynard, Edinburgh, Scotland. james@jraynard.demon.co.uk http://www.freebsd.org/~jraynard/
