I just opened my copy of the Nov.95 issue of IEEE COMPUTER, and found in the "Letters" the beginning of a flame war on "Linux vs. BSD" (in Aug.95, IEEE COMPUTER published an article by Shahid Bokhari on Linux.). Here a reader which complains because the original author did not mention BSD at all, Bohari replies with (in my opinion) weak and possibly wrong arguments. It's interested to read the letters (I can copy them if needed). Personally, I second the reader. I don't know if Jordan or someone from this list might try to step into the discussion.
