OS/2 "in my opinion" could have been the best OS on the market if IBM wasn't such a control Freak!! Even today OS/2 holds up although most OS/2 users are running to BeOS and linux. FreeBSD is one of the best OS's (there can Be no Less anything). "I think I heard it best from a linux user who said: "If you make something idiot proof, then only idiots will use it." Well "ALL of US" are Using FreeBSD because "where not idiots" (Yes even me.. forgive me walnut creek :P). There should never be a "Grey-Area" in Operating Systems. After-all, in 15 years 9yr olds will be doing SYSADMIN jobs.... and what will we be doing???? -don't re-invent the wheel Cosmic-665 ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
