There are a million sites discussing this, it's a flamebait, and no one wants to have that start up, so what you are doing is being (possible innocently, but I wonder) very very impolite. If you want to protect your reputation, drop "Linux vs. FreeBSD" as a subject right this minute. Otherwise, depending on if you answer this, most of the world is going to put you on their kill list for email blocking. You have been warned. If you have a specific FreeBSD question though, trot it out, you'll be amazed how good the support is. > > > Koen > (I don't want to start a flame war, only some good sites) > > _______________________________________________ > 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"
