Time to forget this. It is a semantic and religious battle playing hair splitting games with words. It is not a MS clone but it is an MS replacement. If you overwrite your MS-Win with FreeBSD, it completely replaces it. It will do everything you need except look like MS-Win and people who are trying to get out of MS-land are happy to find that to be true. Give them a hand rather than a kick in the face. ////jerry > > as linux tries for many years to be windows replacement - it's both low > end unix and low end windows replacement, "windows for poor". > > not a nice future for FreeBSD IMHO. > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
